The day that Munster, the ragged provincial team from Ireland, beat the legendary New Zealand All-Blacks in 1978 in Limerick, is now part of rugby mythology. This is the story of one of the greatest days in rugby history.

Alan English was born in Limerick in 1965, two years after the All Blacks made their first appearance at Thomond Park. He began his career at the Limerick Leader and is now deputy sports editor of the Sunday Times. In 1999, he edited the bestselling Sunday Times Sporting Century. He lives in London with his wife and three children
"Among the best books ever written on Irish sport" * Sunday Tribune * "Brilliant ... The definitive account. It captures the essence of what makes Munster rugby and its provincial team so unique. For those of us centrally involved it drags us back in time as if the intervening 27 years haven't happened at all" -- Tony Ward * Irish Independent * "The most engaging book on rugby that I've read in many a year - well researched, splendidly put together with a deft control of narrative. The craft of the novelist with the graft of a hack - it's a winning formula" -- Mick Cleary * Daily Telegraph * "A terrific combination of intelligent reportage and open-eyed mythmaking" * Sunday Times * "A mine of information on a mythical day in Irish sport" * Sunday Tribune *
