Jonah Lomu the Autobiography (HB)The autobiography of one of the greatest rugby player of the modern era.
When Jonah Lomu trampled over Tony Underwood in the World Cup semi-final in 1995, the greatest star rugby union has ever seen was launched on the world.
His size and pace seemed to make him unstoppable - and he was still just 20, having only recently learned to play on the wing.
How much better would he get?
However, a year later, a rare and serious kidney disorder threatened more than his career. He fought back, and continued to score tries at a remarkable rate.
Lomu's astonishing story is not just about tries, but about adapting to becoming rugby's first superstar of the professional era, a life lived in the spotlight.
This is an extraordinary tale from an extraordinary man.
