This is Murrayfield

'A century of sporting and human history distilled with warmth and wisdom' - Mark Palmer, The Times In 1925, Scotland played their first ever game at Murrayfield Stadium. They opened this new home with a landmark result, defeating England with a late drop-goal to secure their first Grand Slam title. This was the first in a long line of epic encounters to have taken place on that hallowed ground over the next century.  In This is Murrayfield, celebrated rugby writers Peter Burns and Rob Robertson curate 100 of the most memorable, significant and sometimes quirky fixtures to have been played at Murrayfield over the last 100 years. Gorgeously illustrated with black and white and colour photography throughout, this is an insightful, fun and fascinating record of some of the greatest moments in Scottish rugby history.

Peter Burns is an editor and publisher, and is author of several books including Behind the Thistle: Playing Rugby for Scotland, Behind the Ryder Cup: The Players' Stories, White Gold: England's Journey to World Cup Glory. He is also the co-author of Behind the Lions: Playing Rugby for the British & Irish Lions, the bestselling When Lions Roared, This is Your Everest and Men in the Arena.
