From the Back Cover
Containing over 220 images with detailed captions, this book illustrates the first 125 years in the history of Birmingham City Football Club.
A mixture of action shots, team photographs, player portraits, programmes, cartoons and other significant items cover the Blues from their early incarnation as Small Heath Alliance, through entry into the Football League in 1892 and various ups and downs - including several promotions, two FA Cup finals, the winning of the League Cup and two European Fairs Cup finals - right up to the present day. Special attention is paid to the great players that have served the club, such as Harry Hibbs, Joe Bradford, Gil Merrick, Malcolm Page, Terry Hennessey, Trevor Francis and Bob Latchford.
With detailed captions from football historian Tony Matthews, this pictorial record is essential for anyone with an interest in Birmingham City and will delight both young and old supporters of the team.
