Declan Kidney is the greatest coach in the history of Irish rugby. The Cork native and schoolteacher led Munster through the earliest days of the professional game, losing two European finals before winning two in 2006 and 2008. The following year, in 2009, he spectacularly brought home to Ireland a first Grand Slam title in 61 years, proving himself ‘The Master’ of European rugby. The story of Declan Kidney’s life and times is told through contemporaneous thoughts and memories of those who met Declan Kidney’s teams on the field of play.The coaches who attempted to outwit him.And the players who delivered for him in red and green jerseys on the greatest stages in the game.‘The Master’ is edited by award-winning writer and author Liam Hayes.
