The story of how Sussex, the oldest of the county clubs, finally won the County Championship in 2003, 164 years after they were founded. It tells the background behind the 1996 revolution that made it all possible; explains just how the title was won; profiles the major players in the drama; and talks to the merry ghosts of other, failed campaigns.

Paul Weaver has been watching Sussex since 1968. He has written for The Guardian since 1992, Bruce Talbot saw his first county cricket in 1979 and has been watching Sussex for over 20 years. He has reported on their fortunes for 15 years, first with the Mid Sussex Times and since 1994, as Cricket Writer for the Brighton Evening Argus.
