* Which England player found a way to cheat in the fat testing before the 1987 World Cup? * How did Fiji manage to get themselves to the World Cup despite all the planes in and out of the country being grounded? *Which French player sat on the bench smoking a cigarette while his team won a place in the 1999 final? Real Men Drink Aftershave is the behind-the-scenes story of the first 20 years of the Rugby World Cup: the funny, the irreverent and the quite unbelievable players' tales about what really happened. It tells the story of the biggest change in the history of modern sport - as rugby went from amateur to professional, dragging the players along with it. "This book is a joy. Light of touch but deep on research. I loved it." The Daily Telegraph "Very funny. I loved this book for its' coffee-snorting humor but also the way it showed the grand progress of major international sport in such a short time. Very funny, informative and elegantly written."
