4.0 out of 5 stars A Christmas Present!, 7 Feb 2009
By H. M. Britt (Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Bought as a Christmas gift for my nephew. He had done his research on books he fancied, sent me links to websites where I could buy them and I chose Amazon. Therefore I can't tell you about the book as I gave it away! It arrived quickly, in plenty of time for Christmas, even though I didn't allow much time for it to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Football mad son, 4 Feb 2009
By A. Bristow (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We bought this book for our son who works in Sports P.R. It was on his "xmas list".A really lovely hardback book with a huge amount of information and plenty of illustrations.Its the sort of book to leave on a coffee table and just pick up from time to time to wander through.Well worth the money.
