Overview
The culture, the club, the people, their passion, the good times and the bad – these are just some of the things that make Richmond one of the AFL’s great clubs. All these components, and more, are detailed in this book celebrating 100 years of the Tigers. While a series of essays takes you through the club’s history, from its birth in 1907, to the glory years of the late 1960s and 1970s, and the lean times of the modern era, more than 50 club greats, including Royce Hart, Ian Stewart and Matthew Richardson, share their own anecdotes in interviews with Rhett Bartlett. A superb collection of photos makes this a must for anyone with a little bit of Tigerland in their blood.
