This is the story of one of British rugby's greatest-ever forwards. Neil Back has scored more tries than any other member of an English pack. Eulogised by team-mates, feared by opponents and loved by supporters, he is acknowledged as the most dynamic flanker in the world game. In a book that 'hits as hard as one of his tackles' (Daily Mail), Back describes how for years he was ignored by coaches who felt he was too small for international rugby. He describes his single-minded dedication to prove his detractors wrong and records the triumphs and disappointments of British Lions tours, Six Nations campaigns and life with the all-conquering Leicester Tigers. In doing so, he reveals the 'human side to a superhuman player' (Inside Sport). The paperback contains fresh accounts of the Lions tour to South Africa in 2001 - including Back's views on controversial coach Graham Henry - and recent Six Nations championships, including his elevation to the England captaincy. He also gives his views on the current crop of England stars.

How we describe the condition of our books

We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)

New: Exactly as it says.

As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.

Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.

Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.

Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.

Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
