HISTORY OF DONEGAL GAA: FROM ANCIENT HURLING MATCHES ACROSS DITCHES TO THE GLORY OF ’92

A superb new book detailing the history of gaelic games in each of the 32 counties has been launched.

And the history of GAA in Co Donegal is remarkable.

It details ancient games of ‘hurling’ in Inishowen to the time when Burt actually played under the auspices of the DERRY county board….right through to the All-Ireland success in football in 1992.
