Dan Carter : A Tribute to the All Blacks Perfect 10

order quantity

NZ$ 44.00 each

Hardback

Author: John Matheson

Published by: HarperCollins Publishers (New Zealand)

In Stock: 1

Ever since he burst onto the test rugby scene in New Zealand in 2003, Dan Carter has been earmarked for greatness. His exploits for Canterbury, the Crusaders and the All Blacks are the stuff of legends. He did the 'impossible' early on in his international career when he made the rugby nation forget about Andrew Mehrtens - a first-five whom many thought couldn't be replaced for at least a generation.
But Carter not only replaced Mehrtens but he took the art of first-five-eighth play to a new level, as shown by his performance against the Lions in 2005 when he came head to head with England's 'best ever', Jonny Wilkinson.
This book, the eighth in HarperCollins' Tribute series, celebrates Dan Carter's life - from the backblocks of Canterbury to the biggest rugby stages in the world.

Throughout its 500-year history, cricket has been a mirror for society as a whole, reflecting the changes that have brought us from the quintessential village green to Freddie Flintoff's pedalo, from W G Grace to Monty Panesar, via a fair number of eccentrics, heroes and downright villains. William Hill Award-winning writer Simon Hughes, no mean player himself, has lived and breathed cricket his whole life and now takes his analytical skills and typically ... more
