Scarlets - The Official History by Alun Gibbard
Llanelli is one of the most famous rugby towns in the world and, as such, is the focal point for one of the most passionately supported rugby clubs, the Scarlets. This beautiful book documents the rich and unrivaled rugby heritage of the club, from its first game in 1876 through to the present day, offering a comprehensive history of the club and its place at the heart of the local community. Backed by the club itself, this is the first official history of the Scarlets to be published in more than 30 years.
