By Ceri Jenkins VINE™ VOICE
Wonderful trip down memory lane for anyone who was around during World Cup 70. The flare and exhuberance of that Brazilian Team obviously had a huge impact on the author, as it did on the world. He unashamedly shares his joy in meeting the players from that team to compile this book, and it's particularly interesting to see the diversity of paths that the players have taken in subsequent years. If I have one criticism it was the author's complaining of Jairzinho's non-contribution to the book. Jairzinho wanted to be paid to contribute to what he saw as a commercial enterprise, and one has to assume that this book's production wasn't a work of charity by the author.

Very nice review of the accounts leading up to the game and during the game - went off the subject just a little too much - but great insight on the players post careers - Garry - Id like to talk to you about a deal
