- Summary:
- "Rugby is New Zealand's national sport. From the grand tour by the 1888 Natives to the latest World Cup, from games in the North African desert in the Second World War to matches behind barbed wire during the 1981 Springbok tour, from Carisbrook to Eden Park, the story of rugby is New Zealand's story. Rooted in extensive research and highly illustrated with many rare photographs, this book is the defining history of rugby in a land that has made the game its own"--Jacket flap.
