Fields of Fire by Damian Lawlor
The Kilkenny team of the last decade has undoubtedly been the greatest in the history of hurling. Their extraordinary record speaks for itself. But has a chink finally begun to appear in Kilkenny's armour? This book tells the story of Kilkenny's phenomenal success and explores how the Cats became an almost indomitable force.
A deeply researched portrait of the last decade of inter-county hurling and as close as anyone has come to getting to the core of what has made Kilkenny great -- Malachy Clerkin * Irish Times *
