The World Encyclopedia of Football by Tom Macdonald
Beginning with the 19th-century roots of football, this guide traces the growth of the sport right up to new rule changes and statistics from both national and international leagues. To relive some of the most magical moments, there are flashbacks to the dream teams of the 1930s, '50s and '70s and the major championships of Europe, South America and Asia. The book includes both information on the 2002 World Cup finals in Japan and Korea as well as the results at the end of the 2001-2002 season. Fully illustrated, this is a useful reference guide, encapsulating the heady mix of nostalgia and passion for this beautiful game felt by fans around the world.
