About this product

THE MUST-READ ACCOUNT OF BELOVED ENGLAND CAPTAIN LEWIS MOODY'S ASTONISHING CAREER Lewis 'Mad Dog' Moody is a legend of English rugby. The Leicester and Bath flanker saw and did it all during a career which saw the sport change beyond recognition: from his first tentative forays into the sport to the huge spectacle that rugby, and especially test match rugby, has now become. From league, cup and European honours with an iconic Leicester Tigers team alongside the likes of Martin Johnson and Neil Back, to a 2003 World Cup winners' medal and an MBE when still a young man, Moody achieved as much as anyone in the history of the sport. After a great deal of heartbreak - pain, illness and self-doubt - he re-emerged to captain his country to a third World Cup campaign in 2011. Mad Dog - An Englishman is the story, warts and all, of one of the most-loved and respected British sporting figures; a story that allows the reader into the inner sanctum of a top rugby star's life, from the early days of student and rugby dressing room mayhem, to the latter years of dedication to the cause, and utter professionalism against all odds. You may think some of Lewis Moody's adventures are well-known. You
