Great Gaa Stories - Off The Field And On

Like New unmarked Paperback on the Trials and Tribulations of Gaelic Games. First Edition written in 1999.
OFF THE FIELD AND ON is Brendan Fullam's action-packed book of footballing firsts and historic hurling moments, it is a first in itself, drawing together comprehensively incidents and accidents of history that have marked the spectacular life of the GAA. Not alone a journey back in time through the glorious decades since the foundation of the Gaelic Athletic Association, this is also a tribute to the human endeavour that has turned the world of Gaelic Games into an international force supported by millions.
Relive the triumphs of the greats - Jack Lynch, Terry Leahy, Jamesie O'Connor, DJ. Carey, and remember the equally great men behind the scenes - Croke Davin, Cusack, Sam Maguire and Liam MacCarthy - the men who founded and nurtured the Association.
