About the Author
Martin Johnson has achieved all there is to achieve in rugby since making his England debut in 1993. He has captained his club, Leicester, to all the major honours, winning four successive league title (1999-2002) and two European Cups (2001 and 2002); he's led England with huge success, including the 2003 Grand Slam and the 2003 World Cup, winning 84 caps by the end of 2003 and captained the British Lions on their last two tours.
Reviews
Firm, clear and fascinating... There is no morbid sentimentality...about these passages, and their directness is reflected throughout the book with no concessions to the squeamish... His rugby life [is] quite a journey, but...millions will feel compelled to make the trip. * Brough Scott, Sunday Telegraph *
Very droll, dry, self-deprecating humour; Johnno is a very funny man...this is so crisp, tough. I think it's a good buy for Christmas. * Germaine Greer *
