Description

The GAA's founders in 1884 cannot have imagined Croke Park, a sports icon in Ireland's national consciousness, would host over 80,000 people at an international rugby match. Here is the story of `Croker' from the beginning, featuring great games, personalities, dramas, and non-GAA events. Reminiscences by renowned players, officials and others add color to the history. The magnificence of the stadium is reflected in the best ever collection of photographs and illustrations about this hallowed ground.
