THE NO. 1 BESTSELLER Shortlisted for Sports Book of The Year, Irish Book Awards 2025 --- 'A terrific book' Brendan O'Connor, RT� Radio 1 'An absorbing insight into the mind of a leader' Irish Times --- At the age of 16, a boy amongst men, Andy Farrell made his first-team debut for Wigan Warriors - and became a father for the first time. At 18, he won his first senior international cap. At 21, he won his first Man of Steel Award for the Super League player of the year. He went on to win the Golden Boot award for world player of the year. All of that on its own would have been enough to make him a sporting legend - and none of it even hinted at the fascinating second chapter of his sporting life, as a rugby union player with Saracens and England, or the third chapter, as a highly successful and beloved union coach. Under his leadership, Ireland have played a brilliant brand of rugby combining precision and freedom, and have won two of the past three Six Nations championships. And most recently, he led the Lions to their first series win since 2013. Warm, thoughtful and passionate, Andy Farrell is not just a brilliant rugby man: he is a fascinating human being. His autobiography brings us back to his childhood in Wigan, when he made a meteoric ascent to the highest levels of rugby league. He writes about his ambitious attempt to remake himself as a rugby union player in his thirties. He writes about the importance of family in his life and he traces the journey that has led to him become one of rugby's most successful coaches, explaining what he has learned about leadership along the way. 'A likeable book about a likeable man. You'll enjoy it.' Irish Independent
