Publisher's Synopsis
He won 53 consecutive caps for Wales between 1967 and 1978 and scored 20 international tries, captained his country at 19 years of age, represented the British Lions in 1968, 1971 and 1974, appearing in 10 Test matches and recently was voted by Rugby World readers the greatest ever. He remains as familiar a name in Cardiff as Christchurch, universally respected from Suva to Sydney to Swansea. And now is the opportune moment for Gareth to look back at his life since retirement: it has been 20 years since he published his highly successful autobiography "Gareth". He speaks frankly about the changes rugby has undergone over recent years with the arrival of professionalism, and compares the rugby world of his time with that of today. Offering fascinating behind-the-scenes anecdotes about the characters and events in the game and talking about his glittering career, "Gareth Edwards" is much more than a run-of-the-mill autobiography, this is the autobiography of a rugby superstar.
