1966 and All That by Geoff Hurst
Catapulted to fame in only his eighth international, Geoff Hurst scored a hat trick against West Germany in the 1966 World Cup final. His final goal has been played so many times that it has dominated his life ever since. This autobiography shows that there is more to the man than that one day. He relives the golden era in which he played, reveals some behind-the-scenes stories of events with England and his club sides that have never previously emerged, and he offers his views on the modern game.
Stands out from the standard ghosted autobiographies.. the period detail gives it huge charm - Simon Barnes, The TimesRiveting - Mike Pattenden, The Times
