50 Years of Football in Focus: The Beautiful Game in Pictures

The Beautiful Game evokes passion on the scale of religious fanaticism, and this book oozes the essence of football club loyalty and hero worship, captures and replays breathtaking and memorable goals, and bears witness to dastardly fouls and controversial send-offs. It's also a celebration of football ephemera-colorful scarves, treasured programs, proudly worn rosettes-that identify teams and supporters. Archive photographs present a gallery of the game's best-loved players, iconic managers, and the fervour of their adorning fans. 50 Years of Football in Focus is a fascinating, quirky, idiosyncratic, and intimate snapshot of the past fifty years of British football, selected from the Offside Sports Photography collection by a leading sports photographer.
