The inside story of Stuart Lancaster's England Rugby team.
Over the three years since England's farcical appearance at the 2011 World Cup in New Zealand (dubbed in some corners as 'Mike Tindall's stag party'), England have been building a team with the work ethic, humility, skill and confidence to compare with that all-conquering, World Cup winning 2003 side. Much of this is down to their coach, former burger-flipper and PE teacher, Stuart Lancaster. But how, with seemingly little relevant experience, has Lancaster turned this team around?
Part biography, part examination of leadership, The House of Lancaster pulls apart the England rugby machine and looks at how it's been put together. Filled with exclusive interviews of the leading protagonists, players and coaches, as well as containing unprecedented access to Lancaster's methods, The House of Lancaster shows how the vision, personality and leadership skills of one man can turn a team of also rans into world beaters.
