Paperback. Etat : Good. 279 pages. front cover lightly markedIt is 50 years since the great 1967 All Blacks World Tour. Drawing on intervi ews with the surviving players, Alex McKay tells the remarkable story of events leading up to the tour, the historic series of 17-match wins, and how rugby in N ew Zealand has been transformed since then. 1967 witnessed worldwide social chan ge in music, arts, sport and society. New Zealand saw the end of traditional 'si x o'clock swill' and society started to move beyond the accepted standard of 'ru gby, racing and beer'. The All Blacks team was at the centre of a dominant cultu re and this 1967 team is seen as having been enormously significant, not only in transforming the style of the game from a defensive to an attacking focus, but in the personal histories of its players. Many from the 1967 team went on to ach ieve success off the field - three players were knighted, while four other playe rs were elected to Parliament. Their prowess in rugby was a major part of their young lives and it influenced many successful and fulfilling careers in teaching , business and farming - skills of discipline, management and leadership inspire d by visionary coaches and the ethos of New Zealand in the 1960s.
