Illustrated. In this authorised biography Chris Cairns explores the key moments of his life, including traumatic events - his parents' divorce, the death of his siter, impasses with friends and foes. He also tells of the moments of truimph and how they were achieved, and always examines his emotions with a refreshing honesty.
Cairns has also been explicit about some of the controversies in his cricket career. He gives his perspective on the West Indies tour in 1996, and his late night in Wellington in 1997. He answers rumours and half-truths about sledging and injuries. He is also very open about the contentious issues of cricket today - referees and bonus points.
Cairns' career spans three decades, and he has been in a unique position to view the development of New Zealand cricket. It is a story, that, at different times, inspires tears of laughter and sorrow, all washed down with the joy of victory.
