The Master: The Life and Times of Dally Messenger is a 2007 trade paperback biography written by the legendary Australian sports figure Dally Messenger himself. It offers a vivid portrait of the man who helped shape rugby league in Australia and became an enduring icon of early 20th‑century sport.

Drawing on personal recollections and historical context, the book traces Messenger’s rise from a talented schoolboy athlete to a national hero, detailing his on‑field exploits, off‑field challenges, and lasting influence on Australian sporting culture. Readers gain insight into the broader social and historical backdrop of Australia during Messenger’s era.

Written in an accessible style, this non‑fiction work appeals to both young adults and seasoned readers interested in biographies, sports history, and Australian heritage. The Hachette Australia edition provides a compact, collectible addition to any sports or history library.
