Synopsis
As well reliving the highlights of his illustrious career as a commentator, Bill talks of the game today and his regrets that rugby went professional. He is a fierce critic of what this has led to and fears for the future health and safety of rugby players because he regards the modern game as dangerously physical. His story amounts to a history of the game itself and reaffirms McLaren's status as something of a global treasure.

Review
"The familiar rugby stories are still there but the haunting chapters on the bloodiest of wars, his fight for life against TB, the last-ditch arrival of a miracle cure and the death of his beloved daughter Janie, constitute largely unchartered and painful territory - at least emotionally and in public - for the most private of men" -- Daily Telegraph "It has plenty about the rugby world and his inherent sense of fairness but, even more pertinently, about the real, sometimes apocalyptic, world" -- Sunday Herald "He has a remarkable story to tell ... it is in turn heart-warming and heart-rending. Bill McLaren was and is a one-off. So is his book" -- Yorkshire Post "Bill McLaren, the legendary commentator, may have hung up his microphone, but moving words still flow" * Daily Telegraph *
