Winter Colours by Donald Mcrae
Rugby is a sport that means different things to different people around the world. So when award-winning writer Donald McRae set off to take the pulse of the sport soon after the dawn of the professional era, he began to build a portrait of the game that highlighted the contrasts between nations, who may have been united in their love for rugby, but who saw it in very different ways. Featuring in-depth interviews with a range of great players from around the world, including Sean Fitzpatrick, Francois Pienaar and Lawrence Dallaglio among others, Winter Coloursis a compelling account of the culture of rugby as seen by its biggest stars - men who also hold dear the sport's very traditions that make it so special. This is a remarkable piece of writing and is sure to be of interest to all who follow the sport at any level.
Donald McRae is an award-winning author of fourteen non-fiction books which have featured sporting icons, legendary trial lawyers, heart surgeons and South Africa. He has twice won the William Hill Sports Book of the Year – the UK's most prestigious sports book prize – and ten national awards for his journalism at the Guardian.
