Illustrated. Ebony & Ivory is the story of two remarkable sportsmen - one who scored more tries in test mataches than any onther New Zealander, one who scored more tries in first-class rugby than any other New Zelander.
Stu Wilson (Ivory) and Bernie Fraser (Ebony) developed through their rugby a sort of soul-friendship. They are different, they are the same. They love to stand off and analyse rugby and rugby players seriously and, then, with a diverting sense of the ridiculous, let rugby be seen as a game of fun.
This book is packed with pure rugby - as many rugby works are not - but it is told in such an entertaining way that there is never a sense of being overwhelmed by it. It is a serious book. It is an outrageous book.
