| Synopsis: |
This is an English translation by the author of the first major biography of Robin McBryde who is presently coach - of the forwards - for the Welsh rugby team, and will be in this role in the autumn 2007 Rugby World Cup. The book will contain an exclusive and highly topicial new chapter on McBryde's personal experiences of the World Cup. McBryde has, over his career, won 37 caps for Wales, and been captain of Llanelli for two seasons and a member of the British Lions team. The message of the book is that of success as the reward of commitment, widening reader interest out from the sports afficionado to the general reader.The story is shaped around McBryde being one of the few Anglesey players to overcome the "south Wales mafia" and play international rugby. It traces his progress from local and small clubs to success in the higher profile Swansea and Llanelli. The lows of his life are used to create suspense: these sections cover his periods as substitute under Mike Ruddock's captaincy in Swansea; and his injuries and his frustrations on the Lions team. This will be an accessible, readable book with expected high sales and potential for UK-wide sales. |
