Description - Yorkshire CCC: A County of Champions by Gigi Romano

From the windswept village greens of the 19th century to the roaring stands of modern-day Headingley, Yorkshire CCC: A County of Champions charts the remarkable journey of England's most iconic cricket club. This richly detailed narrative spans over 160 years of triumph, transformation, and tradition, bringing to life the club's greatest eras, its legendary players, and the fierce pride that has always defined the White Rose.

With powerful storytelling and historical depth, the book explores the golden eras under Lord Hawke, the post-war revival led by Trueman and Illingworth, the turbulent decades that tested Yorkshire's soul, and the exhilarating resurgence of the 21st century. Along the way, it celebrates the genius of Sutcliffe and Hutton, the grit of Boycott, the magic of Rashid, and the promise of stars like Harry Brook.

But this is more than just a cricket history-it's the story of a county, its people, and a game that lives in every pub, schoolyard, and village green from Scarborough to Sheffield.

Whether you're a lifelong Yorkshire loyalist or a cricket lover fascinated by the game's rich tapestry, A County of Champions is an unforgettable tribute to one of sport's greatest institutions.
