Description
A definitive biography of the record-breaking Welsh international player who is widely acknowledged as the first superstar of rugby. ‘Monkey’ Gould, who played the majority of his club rugby for Newport RFC, won a then-record 27 Welsh caps; 25 of which were at centre (a record only bettered by Steve Fenwick in 1980); and captained his country 18 times (a record only beaten in 1994 by Ieuan Evans); and, such was his fame and renown, that upon his tragic and early death in 1919, aged just 54, his funeral in Newport was the biggest Wales had ever seen.
