Lawrence, Eddie:
Somerset County Cricket Club, Fifty of the Finest Matches.
Publisher: Stroud, Tempus Publishing, 2002. (1st Edition).
128pp with b/w photo illus and scorecards. "This book covers fifty of the most memorable first-class matches over the 110 years of Somerset CCC's history. Some matches have been chosen because they were great Somerset victories, others because they were closely-fought encounters which ended in either a well-earned draw or in narrow defeat. The touring sides are not forgotten, with the Indians' visit in 1946 and the Australians' in 1971 receiving deserved inclusion for rare victories against overseas opposition. From the matches at the end of the nineteenth century through to 2001, each of the fifty matches chosen can rightly be deemed a 'classic'. Some of the greatest moments in Somerset CCC's long history are recalled, as are many great cricketer who have played for the club, such as Sammy Woods, Jack White, Arthur Wellard, Harold Gimblett, Bill Alley and of course, the three legends, Viv Richards, Ian Botham, and Joel Garner. Carefully researched and selected by Eddie Lawrence, an Honourable Life Member of the club, each match is covered by a comprehensive match report and a scorcard. Over 100 pictures are included featuring the individuals and events on the pitch which make up this history of the club" Fine (new) cond trade paperback. 9 1/4 x 6 1/2 inches
