It has a long and storied history and many fabled heroes. This collection of interview-based essays features 100 proud wearers of the green and gold, surveying Kerry footballers since 1903, their first All-Ireland success, with Tralee's John Mitchels. Current stars interviewed include Colm Gooch Cooper and Kieran Donaghy while names from the past range from John Joe Sheehy to Mick O Connell. All represented Kerry with distinction and have a story to tell. They recount long-forgotten tales and unknown gems of cycling, gun-running, gambling and drinking; some tell of troubled times and civil war; others give amusing and controversial anecdotes of recent training styles and successes. All have helped shape Kerry football. This is a fine and quirky mixture encompassing some notable feats and epic encounters of famous sons of the Kingdom, complemented by a fine collection of old and newly-commissioned photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781905172511\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Note:\u003c\/b\u003e No dust jacket, otherwise a nice clean copy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Collins Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48847102902599,"sku":"ZQ-BGYF-RP5N","price":24.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0293\/7474\/2572\/products\/51Raa_8wzWL.jpg?v=1702821472","url":"https:\/\/www.pigeonhousebooks.com\/products\/princes-of-pigskin-a-century-of-kerry-footballers","provider":"Pigeonhouse Books, Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
