Engage

Just read the review of Matt's book "Engage" in RugbyWorld. Will be getting this next week.

It's not the winning or losing but the taking apart which matters.

The review was outstanding by the way. The reviewer says:

'This is a big call to make but no amount of head-scratching contemplation has prompted recall of a finer rugby book than this. And your reviewer has read hundreds'

The reviewer goes on:

'The basic ingredients were there - a promising career cut short by tragic misfortune, and award-winning author to tell the tale. But the quality and ingenuity of the narrative takes your breath away'

He goes on to give the book a 5-star rating.

Mine is on pre-order with Amazon.

Sounds like a decent purchase for the old man's book shelf!
