Devotion

Mickey Harte led Tyrone to four Ulster Championships and three All-Irelands. This frenetic seven-year spell at the outset of his senior managerial career shifted football's balance of power, changed the way the game would be played for over a generation, and cemented his reputation as one of the most transformative figures in GAA history. Then, in January 2011, everything changed. Devotion (WT) is many things. The story of one family's decade-long struggle to make sense of a profound tragedy. A meditation on the ways in which faith, community, and sport can sustain us in our most difficult moments. And, finally, a portrait of one of Irish sport's true icons, as he brings one legendary era to a close and steels himself for a final assault on the history books. • The first autobiography of a living legend of Irish sport • An intimate exploration of Harte's faith • A portrait of the power of family and community in times of tragedy Competition: Until Victory Always by Jim McGuinness; The Choice by Philly McMahon; Henry Shefflin: the Autobiography; The White Heat by Tomas O Se; Gooch by Colm Cooper
