Cardiff Blues, Scarlets, Wales, Lions and Barbarians player Matthew Rees, a key member of the 2008 and 2012 Grand Slam teams, is the most-capped hooker of all time for the Wales national side and has captained both his region and his country.
However, top-flight rugby is not all there is to Smiler's story. As well as offering insight into Welsh rugby at regional and international level, Matthew also talks frankly about dealing with the bombshell of finding out who his real father was at age 20, and the impact it had on his relationship with his family. He also reveals what he went through after discovering he had testicular cancer at the peak of his rugby career, and how the diagnosis and treatment affected him.
This is not just another rugby biography. Matthew Rees' is an uplifting and dramatic story which will inspire even non-rugby fans.
