Invincible is the story of an unknown New Zealand hero.

This is the incredible story of one man’s journey through a world war and then onto world-wide sporting glory.

It is a story of friendship, redemption and hope. Of luck and guts, loneliness and terror, kindness and salvation, sportsmanship, resurrection and healing.

Son White signs up to fight in World War One with Ben, his horse, dreaming of adventure. In three years of fighting, from Egypt, to Gallipoli and finally in France, Son experiences little adventure and none of the romance of war. He finds himself to be a small cog in an industrialized war. He returns home, broken, alone, and without hope, to a country in the midst of a pandemic. But this is not the end for Son. It is only half time in Son’s story. Son embarks on another journey, another adventure, with another group of young New Zealanders, who by binding together are destined to become Invincible.

Rated 5 out of 5
This is a most remarkable story, following Son’s journey through WW2 and as an All Black. A real insight into the treatment of our men abroad during turbulent times. Recommended to anyone who enjoys reading about the early days of rugby in NZ, and is moved by stories of the war. Highly recommended. Son’s story has stayed with me for months; it’s not like any other book I’ve read. An excellent read and a great gift eg for Father’s Day, birthdays, Christmas. It is a thicker book than I would normally embark on but it is a real page-turner and I was disappointed to be finished with it.
