All Black and Amber

All Black and Amber

On 30 October 1963 Newport RFC recorded a historic victory over the Fifth New Zealand All Blacks. It was the only defeat suffered on their 36-match tour. Fifty years on it should be recognised as the finest performance by any team against the mighty All Blacks outside the international arena. But it isn't - until now. The story of how Newport RFC achieved its greatest triumph and why the result should stand above all others is fully explained in a book that also considers the major events that made 1963 one of the most significant years of the post-war era.
