The Bloodied Field: Croke Park. Sunday 21 November 1920 Paperback – 1 Jun. 2015

Important read in current days after Arlene Foster attended GAA Fermanagh v Donegal game and Orange Order hosts GAA club in Belfast - while the whole island faces change re difference , tolerances and opportuities for wirking together for the better good.

it was so good, i bought it for my nephew.

This book puts a deal of folklore and stories about that horrific day into a historical, factual context. It is a gripping read and the descriptions of Dublin are wonderful.It would, I suggest, have added to the narrative if the public houses etc. referred to were given their present day names where they still exist.It is regrettable that the commemorative game played each November up to the 1970s, I think, was dis -continued.

As close to a definitive account of a critical day in Irish history as you are likely to get. Well researched and crafted.

OK

Fascinating book about the link between Sport and Politics soon after the turn of the 20th Century.

A good mixture of sport and history. Brilliantly told, this is a real page turner and a must read for any gaa enthusiast. Highly recommended.

very pleased with purchase
