The authors' have produced an absorbing account of the evolution of the Welsh Rugby Union during the first one hundred years of its existence.The mystery surrounding the formation of the Union has been unravelled in clear terms; the drama and excitement of the first quarter of the century has been revealed in a new form to all rugby enthusiasts; the controversies surrounding team selection, the dominance of certain individuals,the background and attitude of great players,the scenes of great matches,and the whole period leading up to the Second World War have all been vividly described.
The latter period of the hundred years has been given pride of place by the authors in a narrative that indicates the greatness of Wales in the rugby world.The building of the National Ground,the famous players of the great Triple Crown and 'Grand Slam' teams,and memorable matches when Wales floated in a euphoric sea of triumphs,have now been placed on permanent record for many to relive those scenes,and others to enjoy reading about them in the future.
