5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating tale of a football legend, 15 Jan 2001
By A Customer
The story of Joe Mercer is one of a gentleman. Probably one of the last to grace the game. Any man who can take Man City to the Championship deserves a memorial as fine as this.

Excellent stuff, well researched and very thorough.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent true story of a football gent, 17 Jan 2001
By A Customer
Joe Mercer's life is covered in fine detail by Gary James, who does not appear to have left a single stone unturned in his quest for the truth. Reading this book makes you wonder why Mercer was never knighted, unlike some other footballers who achieve a fraction during their lifetime. Many clubs will look upon Mercer's time with them as some of the best years in their history, and he still has hero status at Maine Road.

Its worthwhile looking for other books by the same author. If all his books are as well researched then you can't go far wrong.
