Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Jim Telfer is one of the greats of international rugby, with a career spanning more than five decades. Looking Back . . . For Once is the long-awaited autobiography which reveals how a shepherd's son from the Borders became the major driving force in the most successful days of Scottish rugby and steered the game into the professional era. As a captain and coach of Scotland and coach of the British and Irish Lions, Telfer has stirred controversy from his native Borders to New Zealand, but it is now time to set the record straight. What made him lambast New Zealand rugby in its Canterbury heartland? Why did he not select his 'best-ever Scottish forward' for a Lions tour? Where did he feel he got it right, and wrong, in selecting foreigners for Scotland and sacking coaches? And, in the opinion of one whose playing and coaching careers spanned more generations than any other Scot, what was the best Scotland team? Telfer remains the only Scottish player to have faced the three southern hemisphere giants - Australia, New Zealand and South Africa - and never lost. He is the sole link between Scotland's last two Grand Slams and their Five Nations Championship triumph. A quiet Borderer with strong opinions, Telfer has intriguing views on rugby in each of the home nations, the influence of the southern hemisphere, the changing motivation of players, and the rugby media. But this is more than a rugby book. In this candid autobiography, Telfer expresses his sadness at the prospect of life without children and his subsequent delight in adopting; reveals how his teaching career was blighted by tragedy in Glasgow but invigorated by a long-haired eccentric; and why his final years at the helm of Scottish rugby almost destroyed his appetite for the sport. From the day he was born in 1940, when a wartime fighter plane crashed into the hills around his home, to the storms he rode both in and out of the game, Telfer has rarely shirked a confrontation. And yet, with personal contributions to his book coming from Martin Johnson, Colin Meads, Andy Irvine and Gregor Townsend among many others, he clearly remains one of the most widely respected men in world rugby. This is his story. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
