About this book:

Errol Tobias was the first black Springbok rugby player - starting in 1980, in the midst of South Africa's growing isolation in the field of international sport. He tells the story of his sporting career from childhood to the major moments in the green-and-gold. Here are the joys and losses, the friendships, his perspective on famous and infamous rugby matches, and the controversy that followed him: was he chosen on merit or used as a pawn so that the Springboks could tour internationally?
