This is a great book for all those St George Dragons fans. I was too young to remember the 11 straight grand finals the Dragons won in the 1950s and 1960’s and even the early years in this book were really before I started to follow the Dragons. But this book brought back some great memories for this mad Dragon supporter. The book has some wonderful stories of the great players such as Graeme Langlands, Billy Smith, Steve Edge, Rod Reddy and my favourite Teddy Goodwin. The wonderful and successful years of the Dragons and unfortunately some not no successful years made me reminisce. The book provides a great insight into the Super League War and the subsequent merge between the St George Dragons and the Illawarra Steelers.

A wonderful book.

And we also have a copy of St George : eleven golden years of the Dragons 1956-1966
