Maggie Alphonsi is not only a national sporting icon, the face of
international women’s rugby and star player of the England side
that won the World Cup in 2014. She is also an inspirational and
totemic figure who transcends sport. The compelling story of
her life makes her achievements even more extraordinary. Hers is an
against-all-the-odds tale, becoming the best player in the world
despite having to battle against racism, sexism, and prejudice. It
is a book forged from the raw emotion, passion, and testimony of an
iconic player, who rose to the elite of world sport when the world
was seemingly stacked against her. It is a moving and revealing
story of a woman who was not prepared to be defined by anyone but
herself and gives the reader a unique insight into how she met her
goals.
