Full Description
There is something for every football supporter in "The England Football Miscellany." The England team has a long and storied history, but this book is neither a work of reference, nor a compendium of lists, nor a collection of biographies, nor a compilation of trivia. In fact, it is a gloriously quirky mixture of all these things and much more besides. Within these pages, the reader will learn hundreds of fascinating facts about the national team on a wide range of topics, from Wembley Way to Soho Square, to the famous managers, outstanding players and big match encounters. Fully revised and updated to include David Beckham's comeback to international football, the opening of the new Wembley Stadium and all the key events of England's Euro 2008 qualifying campaign, "The England Football Miscellany" will bring hours of reading pleasure to every England football fan.
