The Official England Rugby Miscellany

From the first ever international rugby match in 1871 to the quest for glory in France in 2007, The Official England Rugby Miscellany packs the complete history of the England rugby team into one neat little white book – William Webb Ellis, Bill Beaumont, Jonny Wilkinson and all.

The book is packed with quotes, lists, anecdotes and trivia. You will find the result of every England match ever played, the history of Twickenham’s ‘cabbage patch’ and the RFU’s red rose crest… even a list of vicars who have pulled on the famous white shirt.

The Official England Rugby Miscellany is truly the ultimate England rugby trivia book.
