Description
This book tells the stories of some of the GAA's most significant places--and the people connected to them. It ranges from iconic locations such as Croke Park, the Polo Grounds, Hayes's Hotel, and Biddy Early's lake, to more unexpected settings including Fiji, East Belfast, Ellis Island, and an internment camp in Wales.
Along the way, we visit the club--the unbroken link in the GAA's ageless passing down of wisdom--before taking a detour along the Boulevard of Broken Dreams to a barber shop and a car park.
Packed with compelling revelations, the book uncovers, for the first time, Jack Lynch's startling admission in his final interview about the greatest regret of his career; the story of the GAA's first miracle; why Kevin Heffernan lost his temper with Bernard Brogan; why Liam Griffin was warned he would become a laughingstock; the tale of Limerick's gate-crasher; and the extraordinary day Seán Purcell rose from the dead.
