When Australian Test batsman Justin Langer joined Middlesex as their overseas player for the 1998 season, he was not at all sure what to expect. He certainly didn t think the season would start in snow - the first time he had ever experienced it. In this book he reveals what life is like on the county circuit, and contrasts this with cricket back home, searching for the reasons why the English game is struggling. But the book is about much more than cricket, it is an outsider s view on English life, as Langer casts a wry look at the things the English and Londoners put up with, as well as those things where we just don t realise how lucky we are.
