Publisher's Synopsis
The nostalgic magic of the Daily Mirror's outstanding photographic archive and the wealth of publishing experience of Haynes Publishing come together to create an enchanting book which continues the successful 'When Football Was Football' series.
Wonderful and often iconic photographs, and newspaper cuttings from the last century, combine to recapture the highs and the lows of life at St Andrew's.
It includes rare pictures of the FA Cup Finals of 1931 and 1956, images of the club's pioneering trips into European Football in the Inter Cities Fairs Cup in the 1950s, and behind the scenes shots of iconic 1970s stars.
The great players, coaches, managers and characters - including supporters - who have helped shape the club's history are brought to life by fascinating photos from a time gone by.
With a foreward by arguably the club's greatest player Trevor Francis, the book has been written and researched by one of Fleet Street's most experienced football reporters.
