As player, manager, and pundit, Donal Lenihan has seen it all in
the world of rugby - and done much of it too. A victorious captain
of Munster Junior and Senior Schools, he went on to skipper the
Ireland team at the inaugural Rugby World Cup in New Zealand in
1987 and was a fixture in the second row for over a decade, winning
two Triple Crowns and three Five Nations championships. Selected
for three British & Irish Lions tours, he was famous for
skippering the unbeaten side nicknamed 'Donal's Doughnuts', before
taking charge of both Ireland and the Lions as manager. From such a
stellar position at the heart of the rugby world, Donal Lenihan has
a wealth of stories to tell from both on and off the pitch, from
raucous antics on tour to the sometimes difficult fellowship of
players in a time of Troubles. He delves deeply into Cork and
Munster culture and the influence on his career of his family. And
as a much-respected analyst, Donal is also not short on voicing his
opinion on the rights and wrongs of the modern game, and how the
transition from the amateur to the professional era has affected
the heart and soul of rugby. Full of wit, insight and emotional
sincerity, this is a rugby book for the ages by a sporting great.
