Have recently finished the above book by one of our very own, couldn't see another thread about it for everyone's views so thought I'd start one.
The book obviously covers a wonderful period in Hibernian history, covering Famous Five, the Championship flags, European nights as well as a lot of English & European floodlight friendlies, emergence of Baker, Hamilton etc and of course onging misery in the Scottish Cup & against our dear neighbours! Book is wonderfully written & researched in my opinion, evoking strong emotions of the period..just made me wish i was there at the time given what we have witnessed in recent years!! When will we see their likes again, quite possibly never I guess.
Cant wait for next instalment covering Turnbulls Tornados and the era which i'll start to be able to remember games!
Great book I'd thoroughly recommend it to all especially for parents/grandparents who will remember some/many of the matches (all of which are recorded individually).
Big 10/10 from me. Thumbs up smiley :)
Anyone else read it?
