Natal Rugby 18701964, edited and compiled by C. O. Medworth and published by Howard Timmins in 1964, is a richly detailed chronicle of nearly a century of rugby history in the Natal province of South Africa. This commemorative volume captures the spirit, growth, and achievements of one of the country's most passionate rugby regions, celebrating the players, clubs, and administrators who shaped the game from its colonial origins through to the modern era.

Medworth draws on archival records, match reports, and personal recollections to trace the evolution of Natal rugby from informal school matches in the 1870s to the highly organized provincial competitions of the 1960s. The book documents key tours, rivalries, and championship seasons, while also paying tribute to the personalities who contributed to the province's sporting legacy. Photographs, team lists, and statistical summaries complement the narrative, offering readers both historical insight and nostalgic appeal.

Published by one of South Africa's leading mid-century presses, Natal Rugby 18701964 stands as both an important reference work and a celebration of the game's enduring cultural significance. For sports historians, collectors, and rugby enthusiasts alike, it remains a treasured record of South African sporting heritage and the proud traditions of Natal rugby.
