Kids’ football has a wonderfully compelling sub-culture all of its own. The grassroots of the beautiful game are where the hard yards are put in – and where the camaraderie and comic can become interchangeable. Andrew Christophers found himself on the touchline of kids’ football for 25 years. And what a journey those 25 years turned out to be. Funny at times, tragic at others, but never dull or boring. Thrilling, devastating, rewarding, demanding, and above all, just utterly compelling. This book is packed full of stories from the touchline, juxtaposing the significant with the trivial. The sense of belonging, the emotion and the over-investment. The gaffers, the players and personalities. Permission to dream vs heartache and pain. Match reporting, men behaving badly and boys on tour. This is a light-hearted read for anyone with an interest in football or team sports, at whatever level they are played. Re-live the shared values and memorable experiences, and enjoy the ups, downs and all-round entertainment – both on and off the pitch.

Compiled by two highly respected authors and museum curators, this richly illustrated book features 100 objects – ranging from a Viking Thor’s Hammer and Lord Nelson’s funeral drape, to the whistle used during the Christmas truce of 1914. Norfolk has evidence of a substantially longer human past than any other part of Britain. The discovery of the beautiful Happisburgh handaxe, described inside, led to a find of further flint tools twice as old as anything found elsewhere in the country. Each object tells a fascinating story in its own right, adding depth and colour to the chapters of Norfolk’s history. The result is an illuminating visual record, demonstrating the central role objects have in understanding our past and revealing the often crucial role Norfolk has played in the development of our national story.

This most romantic of fairy tales is found in many versions, and the story of the beautiful girl who falls into a long sleep, to be awakened by a lover, has been interpreted by some as an allegory of the spring revival of the earth after a long winter. Charles Seddon Evans, a schoolmaster turned publisher, retold the story specially for Arthur Rackham, who illustrated it with silhouette drawing as a companion volume to CINDERELLA, both first published in 1919 and now reissued in Everyman''s Library.

''EPIC'' Financial Times''PERCEPTIVE'' The Sunday Times''BLISSFUL'' Daily Telegraph''FASCINATING'' Independent on Sunday''TERRIFIC'' Henry Winter''EXCELLENT'' Simon KuperThe fascinating story of football in Eastern Europe following the collapse of the Berlin Wall, from the award-winning author of Inverting the PyramidFrom the war-ravaged streets of Sarajevo, where turning up for training involved dodging snipers'' bullets, to the crumbling splendour of Budapest''s Bozsik Stadium, where the likes of Puskás and Kocsis masterminded the fall of England, the landscape of Eastern Europe has changed immeasurably since the collapse of communism. Jonathan Wilson has travelled extensively behind the old Iron Curtain, viewing life beyond the fall of the Berlin Wall through the lens of football. Where once the state-controlled teams of the Eastern bloc passed their way with crisp efficiency - a sort of communist version of total football - to considerable success on the European and international stages, today the beautiful game in the East has been opened up to the free market, and throughout the region a sense of chaos pervades. The threat of totalitarian interference no longer remains; but in its place mafia control is generally accompanied with a crippling lack of funds.
