Product Description
Bobby Charlton is Manchester United through and through. One of the original Busby Babes; he has devoted his career to the club, playing in 754 games over 17 years, and winning everything the game had to offer. He played alongside some of the greats such as Best and Law, suffered devastating defeats and was involved in one of the greatest soccer tragedies of all time. Here, for the very first time, he tells the story of those United years, how he tasted FA Cup victory in the emotional final of 1963, won three First Division championships and in 1968 reached the pinnacle of club success—winning the European Cup. Inevitably, such highs are balanced with no less dramatic lows, such as the 1957 European Cup semi-final, the highly charged 1958 FA Cup loss which followed only weeks after the Munich Air disaster, and the 1969 European Cup defeat by Milan. The legacy that Bobby Charlton gives to United is beyond compare.



Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars an absolute must read   July 3, 2008
for any football fan, but especially fans of the english game and united, this book is a must read. charlton is gripping in his prose, and the thoughtful, well-versed ambassador of united does not disappoint through the book.

i bought it as a united fan wanting to know more about the clubs greatest ever player. i would reccomend it to anyone who wants to know about the life of a footballer in that time period.

Gripping prose, an excellent story, and an easy flow make this an easy read. Buy the book. Read it. And then sit in anticipation of Charlton's next autobiography My England Years.

I for one, can't wait.
