Lynagh will be in town to talk about his new book Blindsided, which covers his biggest challenge, overcoming a massive stroke in 2012.

At just 48, the former World Cup winner and father of three young boys had his life turned upside down.

For three days his life hung in the balance and Blindsided is his remarkable story of recovery, rehabilitation and remembering.

DeanSwift Books is presenting a conversation with Michael Lynagh at the Nowra Library on Saturday from 11am.

The 72 test Wallaby legend, who when he retired in 1995 held the world record for the most points scored in test rugby, 911, which still stands as an Australian record, will be interviewed by South Coast Register journalist Robert Crawford.
