Dan Carter's last game as an All Black culminated with him declared Man of the Match following the 2015 Rugby World Cup final at Twickenham - an unforgettable ending to the career of the greatest fly-half of all time.

But along with the triumphs of his signature World Cup win, his performance against the Lions in 2005, and an unprecedented run of Bledisloe Cup successes, there was also the pain and doubt he felt during a prolonged period of injury and rehab following the 2011 World Cup.

He watched that victory from the sidelines, as he had the All Blacks' defeats in two previous tournaments. Indeed, heading into the 2015 World Cup he had never finished the competition on his own terms.

His autobiography tells of that redemption, and gets you up close and personal with one of the most celebrated sportsmen of our time.

Threaded throughout the book is an intimate diary of his final year as a Crusader and All Black, during which he worked tirelessly to make one last run at that elusive goal: a World Cup victory achieved on the field.

Dan Carter's autobiography is essential reading for all sports fans.

Daniel Carter, born and raised in Southbridge, New Zealand, is widely considered as one of the best rugby players to have adorned the game. He has been crowned the record points scorer in Test rugby and the most capped All Blacks fly-half of all time. Upon international retirement, he had played 112 Tests for his country and scored 1,598 points in their legendary jersey. He has three times been named World Rugby's Player of the Year, most recently the day after his Man of the Match performance in the 2015 Rugby World Cup final. He played club rugby for Canterbury, Crusaders, Perpignan, Racing 92 and Kobelco Steelers. He annouced his retirement from profesional rugby in February 2021.
