and covered in the diVerent coloured cloth. Each book and slip case will
bear the county badge. There will be an eight page insert at the front on that
from Christopher Saunders Publishing

main body of the book. Each copy will be numbered and signed
s t e ph e n c h al ke has spent a year writing a hugely entertaining
by Stephen and a prominent former captain of that
history of the County Championship—350 pages
county. The limitation of each county
