Synopsis

England Rugby is buzzing in anticipation of the IRB Rugby World Cup 2015, which they are hosting. The England Rugby Miscellany, an official RFU publication, is a fun-packed volume, containing facts, stats, stories, biographies, histories, quotes, songs and quizzes. Written by an author uniquely qualified on the subject having, in his youth, contested line out balls with England World Cup-winning captain Martin Johnson, here are dozens of facts and stats on a multitude of subjects regarding England players, coaches and tournaments. There are also biographies of players and coaches, tournament histories, quotes, songs, quizzes and fantasy teams for England Rugby fans to enjoy. The England Rugby Miscellany touches so many bases, but cannot be compartmentalised into any of them; instead it is the perfect stocking-filler or impulse purchase for anyone who has stood up and sung, "Swing low, sweet chariot.".
