Sport and Ireland by Paul Rouse
Call Number: James Joyce, General 796.09415 ROUISBN: 9780198745907Publication Date: 2015This is the first book to trace the history of sport in Ireland from the middle ages to the new millennium. It weaves the story of the evolution of Irish sport through the political, cultural, social, and economic history of Ireland.
