Gary Ablett

It’s a fan book. Beautifully printed with big pictures within hardcovers; it’s a book to celebrate a gifted athlete. Not to dig too deep. More hagiographic than revelatory. Rather like a trophy for the bookshelves, especially if, like me, the last time Hawthorn played Geelong, I spent most of the game watching Gary.

Primarily a pictorial coffee table style record of the Geelong champion of the 1980s and 1990s.
