A memoir with a difference – a medal-strewn career explored alongside legendary tales of the Ó Sé dynasty.
In a county where success is weighed in medals, the Ó Sé brothers all hung up their boots with heavy hearts but even heavier pockets: a combined total of 16 All-Irelands, 28 Munsters and 12 All-Stars making their way back to An Ghaeltacht – a haul which is unlikely to be surpassed by a set of siblings any time soon.
Marc Ó Sé is the youngest member of the most famous footballing family in Ireland – the Ó Sé family. As such his football path was clear and his mission was understood. Not only did Marc have his brothers to emulate; in Kerry the voices from the past can often speak loudest. How loud is that volume when your own uncle is the inimitable Páidí Ó Sé? More than just a revealing account of Marc’s own glittering career, Ó Sé is laden with the tales and anecdotes, and the successes and failures that have marked the storied history of this footballing dynasty.
