It includes first-person testimonials from many of the stars of the 1975/85 era when Mick O’Dwyer’s brilliant team dominated the game and changed Gaelic football forever – and also teams from The Kingdom that won All-Irelands in the 90s, noughties and in 2014.

The new book leads the reader through 3o Kerry and club games from the point of view of former Kerry stars including Mick O’Dwyer, Dr Sean Murphy, Mikey Sheehy, Eoin ‘Bomber’ Liston, Jack O’Shea, the  Ó Sé   brothers, Seamus Moynihan,  Dara Ó Cinnéide, Kieran Donaghy, and many more.

The exciting new book also tells of the many ups and downs of the 30 stars, both on and off the field, one that is set to enthral Kerry football fans throughout the world

Household names who played with the county throughout the last 60 years but failed to ultimately taste All-Ireland glory will also talk about the one game they will always remember.

“I am privileged to be able to share the fascinating stories of these 30 footballing legends,” said David Byrne.

“Kerry Game of My Life is not only a look back on games gone by, but an exciting journey through the past, what makes these 30 men tick and what got them to that stage of their footballing career. I am really excited to bring to you these stories from both on and off the field.”

Kerry Game of My Life is available in all good bookstores from Thursday, November 4.
