This is the epic story of South Africa’s amazing quests for the
Rugby World Cup, which resulted in triumph at Ellis Park in 1995
and in Paris in 2007, while there was heartbreak in 1999 and shame
in 2003. The Springboks and the Holy Grail is no mere narration of
matches and scores. The author was closely involved in all four RWC
campaigns while working for the Sunday Times and SuperSport, and he
provides behind-the-scenes reportage on the great cast and
incredible incidents that made for such riveting drama. This is a
story of human heroism and frailty, of great dignity and patent
jealousy that transcends the mere realm of sport. The book contains
numerous interviews with key players and administrators, as well as
well-known figures who were touched by these campaigns, and
provides a fascinating insight into an event which is now one of
the biggest in the world of sport. This is a candid glimpse behind
the scenes that often reads like pure fiction.
