About this work

Description

"George Best and Duncan Edwards were two of football's brightest talents. United by the club they played for, but divided by the tragedy of Munich, they came in very different ways to embody their respective generations. Plotting the course and trajectory of these two careers, Gordon Burn presents a dazzling, startlingly original look at football and British culture."-- From back cover.
