At the George and Other Essays on Rugby League Book

This book includes chapters that recall the great players and matches that Geoffrey Moorhouse has seen in the last 40 years, from when he was first attracted to Rugby League as a Lancashire school boy. He looks at the wider aspects of the game, from its origin in Huddersfield, (at the George Hotel) in 1895 to the British Victory against Australia at the Third Test Match in 1988. He ponders the image that Rugby League has in this country and examines the tensions that exist between the two rugby codes and the social, economic and political realities of his favourite sport. Geoffrey Moorhouse is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. He is a former journalist on "The Guardian".Read More
