This is a complete history of the England rugby union team - told
by the players themselves. Based on a combination of painstaking
research into the early years of the England team through exclusive
interviews with a vast array of Test match stars from before the
Second World War to the present day, world-renowned rugby writers
Stephen Jones and Nick Cain delve to the very heart of the English
international rugby union experience, painting a unique and utterly
compelling picture of the game in the only words that can truly do
so: the players' own. This is the definitive story of English Test
match rugby - a story etched in blood, sweat and tears; a story of
great joy and heart-breaking sorrow; a story of sacrifice, agony,
endeavour and triumph. Behind the Rose lifts the lid on what it is
to play for England - the trials and tribulations behind the
scenes, the glory, the drama and the honour on the field, and the
heart-warming tales of friendship and humour off it.Absorbing and
illuminating, this is a must-have for all supporters who have ever
dreamed of walking the hallowed corridors of Twickenham as a Test
match player, preparing themselves for battle in the changing rooms
and then marching out to that field of dreams with the deafening
roar of the crowd in their ears and the red rose emblazoned on
their chest.
