The History of Gaelic Games

The Gaelic Games of hurling, Gaelic football, camogie and handball have a long history, but their modern development begins with the foundation of the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1884. Today, sponsorship and television have brought these sports to millions in Ireland and beyond. This information-packed little book introduces the games, their history and their place in Irish life. Its anecdotes and illustrations bring the unique atmosphere of Gaelic games to life - a perfect gift for anyone who plays, follows or watches the games.
