From the first match between Wales and New Zealand in 1905 to November 2012, a mutual bond of rivalry and respect has developed between the two countries, both having a passion for rugby. In this book the author documents the history of all the matches played but contrary to other histories it shifts the focus from the nitty-gritty of play to the delights and curiosities of off-field actions, obligations and functions, drawing our attention to this often-overlooked aspect of a tour. From forgotten facts unearthed in old, dusty newspapers to the fresh anecdotes and recollections of modern day 'greats' - both All Black and Welsh - Roger Penn provides us with an unorthodox and stimulating look at these great rugby encounters.
Roger Penn lives in Whitland, west Wales and is now retired after a career with Lloyd's Bank. His first publication, Dolycwrt (Gomer, 2011) charts one hundred years of medicine and his second title Beyond the Call of Duty (Gomer 2012) is a biography of his father, Dr George Penn. As a former Welsh Rugby Union referee, his enthusiasm for the game and attention to detail is reflected in this well researched and accessible book.
