Class, Culture and the Origins of Rugby League Football
Description
Looking at rugby in late Victorian and Edwardian England, this title examines how class conflict tore rugby apart and led to the creation of rugby league. It focuses on how men and women became involved in rugby and the hostile reaction to them from rugby's middle-class leaders, and describes how the war for rugby's soul led to the 1895 split.
