The history of Sussex, the oldest of the county cricket clubs, is nothing if not dramatic. In 2003, after an excruciating wait of 164 years, Sussex seized the Championship title for the first time. Since then, they have been the dominant force in the domestic game, winning the title twice more in 2006 and 2007, and the C&G Trophy in 2006.That first Championship five years ago was the subject of the critically acclaimed The Longest Journey. Now authors Paul Weaver and Bruce Talbot return to explain why this has been the richest period in the club's already vivid history.Going behind the scenes, Weaver and Talbot talk to players and coaches, old and new, to explore the big questions surrounding the club. Why, they ask, did a club with some of the most exciting players in the game find the big prize so elusive for so long? And how, after a revolution in 1997, did the club embark on one of the headiest voyages in the history of county cricket? For fans who want to discover all this and more, Sussex County Cricket Club: The Golden Age is a must-buy.
