William Blackledge Beaumont is one of Britain's best-loved rugby heroes. As a player, he twice led Lancashire to the County Championship and captained England to their first Grand Slam in 23 years. He also led the 1980 British Lions in South Africa. He is now a television commentator on rugby and a team captain on BBC Television's "Question of Sport" programme. In this collection of the best of rugby writing, compiled with author and broadcaster Neil Hanson, the reader can sample the highlights of Bill's own career and also encounter the legends of the game, past and present, at home and abroad, each introduced by a piece from Bill himself. The collection spans the whole history of rugby, covering Bill's own choice of the greatest players and teams of every major rugby nation, great tries, great occasions, great names, and of course, the great times and traditions that bind all rugby men together.
