Book Synopsis Making Men: Rugby and Masculine Identity by : Timothy J.L. Chandler
Book excerpt: This text looks at how an understanding of rugby can provide insight into what it has meant to "be a man" in societies influenced by the ideals of Victorian upper and middle classes. It shows that rugby has been a means of promoting male exclusivity, but also been a means of cultural incorporation.
