<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A personal account of a New Zealand sporting icon who became a world superstar - the greatest fly-half in international rugby. In this memoir he opens up for the first time about his stellar 12-year career, looking back on the highs, and, with an equal measure of honesty, the lows of his career.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Dan Carter's last game as an All Black culminated with him declared Man of the Match following the 2015 Rugby World Cup final at Twickenham - an unforgettable ending to the career of the greatest fly-half of all time. <p/>But along with the triumphs of his signature World Cup win, his performance against the Lions in 2005, and an unprecedented run of Bledisloe Cup successes, there was also the pain and doubt he felt during a prolonged period of injury and rehab following the 2011 World Cup. <p/>He watched that victory from the sidelines, as he had the All Blacks' defeats in two previous tournaments. Indeed, heading into the 2015 World Cup he had never finished the competition on his own terms. <p/>His autobiography tells of that redemption, and gets you up close and personal with one of the most celebrated sportsmen of our time. <p/>Threaded throughout the book is an intimate diary of his final year as a Crusader and All Black, during which he worked tirelessly to make one last run at that elusive goal: a World Cup victory achieved on the field. <p/>Dan Carter's autobiography is essential reading for all sports fans.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>... revelatory ... draws out the character of [the] man--<b>The Observer</b>, <i><b>The Observer</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Daniel Carter, born and raised in Southbridge, New Zealand, is widely considered as one of the best rugby players to have adorned the game.
