Behind the Lions: Playing Rugby for the British & Irish Lions

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): David Barnes Nick Cain Peter Burns Stephen Jones Tom English

For 125 years the British & Irish Lions have stood out as a peerless emblem in world sport. This unique account of the best from the four Home Nations examines every tour in the Lions history, including the victorious 2013 tour to Hong Kong and Australia, told in the players words.

Behind the Lions sees rugby writers from across the Home Nations delve to the heart of what it means to be a Lion, interviewing a vast array of former and current players to uncover the passion, pride and exhilaration experienced when wearing the famous red jersey. It is a tale of heartbreak and ecstasy, humour and poignancy that is at once inspirational, moving and utterly compelling. This is the story of the British & Irish Lions in their own words.
