From the Publisher:
This close-up account of the New Zealand 2005 tour follows the fortunes of the Irish players and the 10,000 sometimes mad but loyal travelling fans. The highs and lows of players and supporters are described, the tone moving from quirky and humorous to sombre and low-key. From the opening game to the final match six weeks later, Travelling with Lions captures the intangibles. Humour mixes with analysis as the author gets stuck into life down under with the oval ball.
