As a cricketer, David Gower was famed for the elegance of his strokeplay as one of England's greatest batsmen and for his superb fielding. As a captain, he led his country to Ashes success, yet some queried his application because it all seemed to come to him so easily and effortlessly. But that was never the whole story: Gower was always committed and a great competitor, as this fascinating and frank book, looking back on his life and career, shows. Once he retired from the game, Gower built a new career for himself, first as team captain in the long-running TV comedy series They Think It's All Over, and then as an astute and charming presenter and commentator with Sky Sports. After more than 30 years as one of the most popular figures in the game, Gower now reveals there is so much more to his story than the cliched image of "Lord" Gower flying in his Tiger Moth. He is a man of great insight, determination, and drive, but who also knows there is always more to be had from life.

Recensione:
'David Gower, England batting great turned Sky presenter, compares himself with Kevin Pietersen as a man apart in the dressing room in his new book An Endangered Species, published yesterday. Gower also revisits his hugely difficult relationship with Graham Gooch, now England's battling coach, when they were the two marquee players in the Test side'-- Charles Sale, Daily Mail
'In his just published second autobiography, An Endangered Species (with the excellent Simon Wilde) Gower talks about doubts that drove him close to despair. The light-hearted prank with the Tiger Moth turns out to be a watershed incident in his life, something from which he never fully recovered. Gower is an extremely pleasant fellow. We share an interest in Wildlife, especially African, and both do stuff for the World Land Trust. I have known him for 25 years; never well, but I suspect for many people much closer to him, there's always something rather unknowable about him. Amazing, then, that he's dropped his guard a little in this book' --Simon Barnes, The Times

David Gower made his England debut in 1978, famously hitting his first ball in Test cricket to the boundary. He went on to win 117 caps for his country, scoring 8,231 runs and captaining the side 32 times.
