Some creasing on the spine. Some shelf wear. A written message to the previous owner on a non-essential page. A plain sticker on the inside of the back cover.
In Black and White: The Jake White Story is the compelling autobiography of the man who led the Springboks to Rugby World Cup victory in 2007. When Jake White took over as head coach in 2004, few believed he could transform a struggling squad into world champions within four years. This candid memoir details his journey from a troubled childhood to securing one of the toughest coaching jobs in world sport.
White offers a rare look into the inner workings of South African rugby, revealing the political battles, administrative interference, and the immense pressure that come with coaching the national team. He recounts the highs of winning the Webb Ellis Trophy, as well as the deep challenges, including public scrutiny and personal sacrifices. Honest, controversial, and deeply insightful, In Black and White is a must-read for rugby fans and those interested in leadership under pressure.
