The Six Nations Anthems

How many of the Six Nations rugby anthems can you sing or know much about? This book, designed for phones and tablets, provides the words of all seven anthems, together with English, French and Italian translations. These are accompanied by key and concise facts on their origins and meanings, just enough to read between the anthems and kick off. Plus, there is some trivia, well-known and brand new to impress your mates, or if you're a TV pundit or commentator a wider audience. Then, if you hear words from the stands during the games such as ‘The Fields of Athenry’, ‘Bread of Heaven’ and ‘Swing Low, Sweet Chariot’, you will be able to join in as these songs are included, too. The author was a utility forward at school. He was awarded a GB RFU tie when he played for Greater Birmingham U18s and once packed down against Richard Cockerill. He has written a range of fiction and non-fiction books. If this book sells well, he plans to write others to accompany this year’s European Football Championships and the Olympics and Paralympics.
