More DescriptionBill Samuel, the discoverer, coach, mentor and friend of Gareth Edwards MBE, is a brilliant teacher and a wise, amusing Welsh patriot. In Rugby: Body and Soul he vividly describes the culture of the Welsh industrial villages which produced him and most of the characters in this book.
