"Its fascinating to read the wealth of stories associated with people involved at Clifton over the years and this is an invaluable record of the contributions they have made both to the game, and on the wider playing field of life."
John Inverdale - Broadcaster
"I feel rugby clubs provide a vital role in their community and the relationship between club and society can be seen in its history at Clifton RFC. It provides an emotional and factual account of the players and families who gave so much for club and country through an era spanning the two wars.As the former head coach at Bristol RFC I am most aware of the close historic links with Clifton and this book captures the spirit of what it means to be a club member."
Richard Hill - Former Captain of England and Head Coach of Bristol Rugby
"This book combines the intriguing history of a club with direct links to the foundation of rugby football with a moving record of dedication and commitment from members of Clifton RF who served in the two orld wars. It affirms my view of the important role sport has to play in society and I commend this book as a 'must read' to all generations."
Phil Davies - Former Welsh Captain and current Manager of the National Academy for the Welsh RFU
"This book provides not only a record of the history of Clifton RFC, but captures many important records of the dedication of people from the West Country who have shown their commitment to their club and country, whether through their sport, military, civil or business service. Simply fascinating."
