Andy 2021 : Lessons Learned in Pursuit of Glory

Andy Moran is one of the most respected and admired Gaelic footballers of his generation. The former two-time All-Star, Footballer of the Year and Mayo team captain has written a compelling account of his journey through the sport he loves, told through vignettes about the mentors who influenced him, teammates who inspired him and the games that made him.This is a book about Mayo football - the agony and the ecstasy, the near misses and the friendships - but it has a much broader canvas.This book does exactly what it says. It tells us how sport can influence every aspect of a player's life; how the game of football moulded the writer himself; of the life lessons that sport teaches all of us; and how a good coach can have a life-changing influence on a young athlete. It is also an homage to his native Mayo, a county that has captivated the country season after season through daring deeds and epic comebacks, all in the pursuit of glory.
