The Illustrated History of Football
Author: David Squires
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1473536715
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Stunningly illustrated by David Squires (as featured in the Guardian), The Illustrated History of Football is a wry look at the highs and lows of the beautiful game. Laugh-out- loud and occasionally moving, it's the perfect gift for anyone who loves football. 'Squires is the master of the football comic strip and this collection is recommended reading for enlightened football fans everywhere' -- Late Tackle 'No one captures the absurdities and ugliness of football better than him ... hilarious' -- Coach Magazine '[Illustrated History of Football] is the funniest football tome since Viz's Billy the Fish Football Yearbook, published 26 years earlier' -- Esquire 'Simply brilliant - my favourite football book' -- ***** Reader review 'Completely amazing cartoons with beautiful insight as to the how, why, when & wow' -- ***** Reader review 'Simply wonderful' -- ***** Reader review 'One of the funniest books I've read in a very long time. A must for anyone who loves football' -- ***** Reader review ********************************************************************************************* Football and comics. Once a hearty Saturday combination to match cartoons and cereal, in recent years they've drifted apart. Thankfully for us, illustrator Squires is here to change all that. In The Illustrated History of Football, his first book, Squires relives some of football's most glorious moments and meets its greatest figures. In a sport full of handsome paycheques and corporate sponsors, he also casts a critical eye over corrupt backroom workings and helps pierce football's overblown balloon. Funny, good-looking and preternaturally astute, this book is everything Sepp Blatter wishes he could be. More than the archetypal loo book, this is a satirical look at the highs and lows of football and the perfect gift for all fans...

The Theft of the Jules Rimet Trophy
Author: Martin Atherton
Publisher: Meyer & Meyer Verlag
ISBN: 1841262277
Category : Soccer
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
The theft of the Jules Rimet Trophy in 1966 is one of the most unusual stories in the history of football. The full story of what really happened has never before been told, and those parts that have been told have contained and perpetuated a number of errors. This volume sets out to put the record straight by telling the complete story. It is based on official FIFA and FA files, as well as information drawn from the archives of the German and Brazilian football authorities, police records, complementary newspaper reports, and most importantly, evidence gathered form those involved with the case itself. It presents a factual account not only of the parts that have become public knowledge, but also of the activities that went on away from the glare of publicity and which have never been told in detail before.
