Description

John Eales is Australia's finest rugby player. This biography traces his life from the classic Australian childhood in the surburbs of Brisbane to the glory of captaining the World Cup-winning Wallabies, and shows that this road to sporting greatness has had many twists and turns. With a new chapter taking Eales's story up to his retirement in a blaze of glory after winning against the British and Irish Lions and the All Blacks in 2001, John Eales: the Biography is written with all the passion and colour of a true insider. Sydney Morning Herald sports journalist and former Wallaby Peter FitzSimons interviewed Eales's family, friends, colleagues and teammates past and present, as well as Eales's himself. This book reveals a man whose outstanding qualities extend much further than his exceptional skill on the football field.
