Description
Rob Burrow's inspiring memoir tells the story of a boy who defied the odds to become a rugby league legend. Despite being told he was too small to play the sport, Burrow went on to play almost 500 games for Leeds Rhinos, winning numerous titles and earning a place in the team's hall of fame. Burrow's life took a dramatic turn in December 2019, when he was diagnosed with motor neurone disease. With a prognosis of just a couple of years to live, he chose to fight on, and the outpouring of support from fans and friends was extraordinary. This memoir is a testament to Burrow's boundless courage and infinite kindness, and is more than just a sports story - it's a powerful exploration of the human spirit. Through his story, Burrow reveals the power of love and friendship, and shows how even in the darkest of times, there is always the possibility for transformation and triumph.
