Don Clarke legend

Description

Rugby legends don't come much bigger than Don Clarke. The man known as 'The Boot' was big in every sense of the word, a match winner beyond compare for the All Blacks in the 1950s and 1960s. In an era that gave rugby the great Colin Meads, Don Clarke was every bit the superstar. But there was also an air of mystery about the man. He caused great surprise when he decided to leave his homeland and take his family to a new life in South Africa. He rarely returned home, but again came to the nation's consciousness then news broke of his battle with cancer. A country mourned the passing of a man who deserved to rank among the greatest. Now comes the Don Clarke story, a book about the life and times of a great New Zealander. Family, friends, team-mates and one-time foes open up about one of the country's most famous - and outspoken - sporting greats.
