The Man Who Changed the World of Rugby - John Dawes and the Legendary 1971 British Lions

This book is an overdue tribute to one of rugby union's greatest innovators, the former London Welsh, Wales, British Lions and Barbarians captain, John Dawes. Part of the book was written after the legendary 1971 Lions tour when author Ross Reyburn was sports editor of the Hampstead & Highgate Express in London. To his original manuscript, Reyburn has added an intriguing postscript putting into perspective what Dawes achieved as the key figure in British rugby's renaissance in the 1970s.
