Description

Zinny: The Zinzan Brooke Story- with Alex Veysey. Autographed. " Zinzan Brooke's story is written as rugby goes through the trauma of transition to full professionalism. It is a revealing, informative and entertaining record of a life in rugby which has covered watershed years in the game... He writes for the first time of the humiliation he suffered when selected to replace the charismatic All Black captain Buck Shelford. His perspective of the difficult cross-over to Laurie Mains from Grizz Wyllie and John Hart, and Mains' march to the 1995 World Cup final is one of the most entertaining passages of a book which has a base of humour. The Zinzan Brooke story is, above all, an expression of one player's love of the game and there is in it more of the joy of playing the game than of the game's politics, It is the story of a back-country farmboy who brought his home-paddock skills to the city and prospered. It is a story which mat inspire others to believe that family warmth and personal dedication will overcome material disadvantage." Good condition, kept very tidy with basically no visible marks.
