Summary

The book that every Liverpool fan must have is back with a revised edition packed with a wealth of new features. This updated edition of last year's best-selling The Pocket Book of Liverpool features a brand new cover design and is bursting with the colourful history of one of football's biggest clubs. Learn about Liverpool's glorious history, from the very first team back in 1892, to the first FA Cup winners of 1965, to the 1977 European Cup legends. Take a trip down memory lane with classic matches such as the 5-0 thrashing of Nottingham Forest in 1988 or the unforgettable comeback against AC Milan in the 2005 Champions League Final. Savour the skills of a host of club legends, be it Raisbeck and Rush or Keegan and Dalglish. Packed with original pictures, hand-drawn illustrations and genuine Liverpool memorabilia, this beautifully packaged book salutes the greatest goals (who can forget John Barnes's amazing dribble against QPR in 1987?), legendary managers and tactics of the club's most successful teams, as well as the most memorable kits worn over the years - yes, that includes the infamous speckling shirt design in 1989. On top of all that, there is also a club directory, a detailed diagram of Anfield, honours, records and stats, plus a foreword by club favourite Ian Callaghan.
