This is a good time to remind ourselves that England has played world-beating football and could do so again. Having lived through and remembering England's 1966 World Cup victory isn't quite up there with watching the first Moon landing three years later; but is close. 1966: The Book is a must-have record of the game, the team, the memorabilia and the time.
Really I don't need to say much more; a superb book which I've spent many happy hours dipping into. A tonic in these troubled time, when England and its neighbouring UK countries seem to be on the road to self-destruction, here is a sign that we may have the pluck to win through.
Here is a link to where fans can buy the Collectors’ Edition of the book - limited to 500 copies and signed by Sir Geoff Hurst - http://www.1966thebook.co.uk/collectors-edition/
I was not compensated for this post. A copy of the book was sent to me for review.
