I have always been interested in the interprovincial hurling and football championships but found it difficult to obtain good information, reports, photos etc.

I read today of Dermot Kavanagh's two books about these competitions.

Has anyone read them? Are they a substantial record? How many pages? Are the photos good with names underneath?

I read Davy Fritz's book and loved it,it's a great read,definitely worth a read if your a hurling fan,

Then I read Seán Cavanaghs,Jesus wept!i thought it was brutal,must of his time talk and the parents and the wife,or mummy and daddy as he refers to them,

Does Cahill is well worth the money,if you are a fan of his,lots of Dessie's humour it.

Henry shefflins book is a few years old now,but very good,

Christy o Connor,the club,great read,full of emotion.

Outside of Gaa,Martin Johnston's autobiography is excellent

Philly McMahon s is great

Philly McMahon is a great read, I love how it is very little out "we played this match, that match, we won, we lost". It is about everything else.

The Bloodied Field , about Bloody Sunday in Croker, all about the lead up , what happened on the day and the aftermath, good historical read, has a pretty heavy Tipp emphasis.
