Synopsis

 

Shortlisted for a Post Sport Book of the Year 2020

'Loved the book. Beautifully written' – Rugby World

'Always thoughtful and sometimes very moving, this is a fresh and revealing insight into the man himself and the golden age of Irish rugby' – The Sunday Times

Rob Kearney is the most decorated Irish rugby player in history, winning two Six Nations Grand Slams and four European titles during a 15-year career at the very top of the sport, which included two tours with the British and Irish Lions. One of the most respected and revered names in the professional era, Kearney took the art of full-back play to new heights in the No.15 jersey and his longevity, durability and dedication mark him out as a special man – on and off the pitch. 

Rob Kearney: No Hiding – My Autobiography brings to life the players, the coaches, the matches and the moments that helped define his career. Kearney provides an unflinching, revealing account of life in a Leinster and Ireland shirt, the highs and lows of his profession and wonderfully details the hard work – and the fun – that took place behind the scenes in his decade long pursuit of glory. 

'What I really want is to give an insight into the fact that nobody is bulletproof even at a time when you are at the very top of your game. Even then there are still a lot of conversations that you have with yourself' 

Kearney, on release of the hardback, said: ‘I am really looking forward to getting my story out there. I’ve had many unforgettable experiences and I’m enjoying reliving some amazing memories. It will be an honest book. I want to give people a real insight behind the scenes and reflect on what has been an incredible journey that I’ve shared with some special people.'
