When Football Was Football: Leeds: A Nostalgic Look at a Century of the Club

Profusely illustrated throughout with some of the most iconic images of the club, this book is a visual delight. I was pleasantly surprised when this landed in my hands for Christmas. I was expecting this to be a brief, yet unfulfilling re-hash of other material. While many of these images may be familiar to hardcore fans, I don't think that this many have ever been offered up in one volume, and presented as well as this.  Light on text, but its images are where it shines. Well recommended.  -S.Gibbard.
