A mesmerising, unforgettable journey around world rugby. With a brilliant cast of great players, Rob Kitson’s riveting new book spans contrasting eras and countries with the depth and range, wit and grit, substance and style of the great sport it captures and celebrates.
Hugely enjoyable. Full of a generosity that can’t help but rekindle those warm, fuzzy feelings of shared communion, but without avoiding the hard edges of injury, racism, sexism, the future. I can’t see how anyone who loves rugby – or who wants to love rugby – could fail to enjoy this book.
An adventure through the very heart and soul of rugby, guided beautifully by an author who has seen it all, from gleaming World Cup finals to the Forest of Dean.
A glorious, warm, perceptive, eclectic exploration of the essence of rugby and rugby folk. Finishing it, I came within a whisker of dragging those 30-year-old boots out of retirement.
Around the World in 80 Minutes takes us on a fascinating journey through the highways and byways of global rugby union, celebrating its past and exploring the issues confronting it today. It’s essential reading for serious fans of the game.
Really enjoyed it
An absolutely marvellous book… Recommended heartily.
Magnificent … a hugely intelligent and entertaining interweaving series of tales that gets into the “how” of rugby.
Enjoying this… part memoir, part love letter to a sport in need of love. Bravo
Joyful... a thoroughly entertaining read for both the rugby mad and the newbie.
Brilliant ... an insightful and thought-provoking look at the state of the game ... features fascinating interviews with numerous rugby luminaries.
Essential reading for all rugby fans ... a deeply perceptive and hugely entertaining adventure in the world of rugby, reflecting both on the history and future of this spellbinding sport.
