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.
