2017 sees the latest contest between the British Lions and New
Zealand - the ultimate rugby clash between the northern and
southern hemisphere. Ian McGeechan is the 'Ultimate Lion', and no
one could have done more than McGeechan to promote the magic of the
Lions. McGeechan played for the Lions in their unbeaten 1974 tour
of South Africa, and again in the 1977 tour of New Zealand.
Subsequently he has been the head coach on four Lions tours. In
this unique and fascinating book which celebrates the immensity of
rugby at the top level, Ian McGeechan uses his own coaching notes
to provide his special insight and background into what it means to
be a Lion. By looking at various themes such as selection, how to
create the right environment and how to build the players into what
he describes as 'Test-match animals' the reader learns how some of
the most successful Lions tours in history were built. Writing
always with passion for his various themes it is easy to see how he
inspired his players to extraordinary physical endeavour. Rich in
anecdote as well as facts, McGeechan brings to life many of the
rugby legends with whom he played or coached - including Gareth
Edwards, Gavin Hastings, Martin Johnson and Paul O'Connell amongst
others. Hugely readable The Lions: When the Going Gets Tough
splendidly conveys the massive excitement that is generated
whenever there is a Lions tour.
