Just One of Seven by Denis Smith
Denis Smith was football's real hardman in an era in which brutal defenders introduced themselves to opposing centre-forwards with a friendly whack on the upper thigh. This autobiography reveals his tough upbringing amidst the gangs of Stoke-on-Trent, and how he helped save Sir Alex Ferguson's job.
[Denis Smith] takes his place with the game's definitive hardmen - fiery, unforgiving - a detailed, opinionated book- there is more than a welcome hint of humour, too - David Foot, Western Daily PressFascinating reading ... crammed full of stories charting a career in sport that has spanned decades - Wrexham Evening Leader.
Denis Smith is the author of nine books, including biographies of Walter Gordon and John Diefenbaker as well as an examination of Canada's role in the beginnings of the Cold War. He has taught at Trent University, the University of Toronto, and Western University, where he served as dean of social science.
