- Book Synopsis
- Revised and Updated Third Edition For almost 140 years the Welsh rugby team has battled proudly on the international stage. Full of tales of fighting clergymen, poisoned arrows and deathbed confessionals, James Stafford's An Illustrated History of Welsh Rugby takes a unique look at the games, the players, the legends and the myths behind Wales's national game. Blending fun and facts with trivia and social history, this is Welsh rugby like you've never experienced it before. Brimming with delightful illustrations from Raluca Moldovan and irreverent humour, this book will fascinate young readers and curious adults alike.
