Ross County by Frank Gilfeather

In Ross County: From Highland League to Hampden, Frank Gilfeather charts Ross County's remarkable Scottish Cup run of 2009-10, a fairytale story of giant-killing and an inspiring and heart-warming account of one of the minnows of Scottish football overcoming the odds in their chase for glory at Hampden Park, the spiritual home of Scottish football. With exclusive behind the scenes access to the 'Staggies' as they prepare for their Cup showdown with Dundee United, Gilfeather also traces the fans' experiences, gathering photographs and anecdotes from the Ross County faithful as they follow their team in pursuit of what many have considered an impossible dream. This is the story of the highs and lows of a Cup campaign, of the wonder of football and the majesty of battling against all the odds to achieve something that will be etched in the history books, and in hearts and minds, forever.
