Product Description

Containing over 250 drawings of the Everton story, from portraits of the likes of Edgar Chadwick, Tommy Lawton to Duncan Ferguson, this work features 101 player profiles, underlying years played, appearances made and goals scored. It offers review coverage in local press and football media; POS available. "Everton's Illustrated History" is packed with drawn illustrations presenting the Everton story. From 1870 to 2009, from St. Domingo to the Golden era, from the School of Science to the Dogs of War, from the successful to the not successful eras have been illustrated, along with 101 player profiles, facts, and quotes, as the Peoples Club story is told. "Everton's Illustrated History" includes over 90 profiles of the players who are rooted in the Everton story. The likes of Alfred Milward, Jack Taylor, Dixie Dean and Ted Sagar add to the history along with recent heroes such as Kevin Ratcliffe, Paul Rideout, Kevin Campbell and Mikel Arteta. Every appearance and goals scored by the Everton greats underline what a massive Club Everton FC is. Unlike other history publications, "Everton's Illustrated History" is a roller-coaster ride of the Everton years through the eyes of illustration and text exploring the early 1900's FA Cup jinx, to the Dixie Dean and Tommy Lawton inspired 1930's Championships. Along with the two relegation seasons and the Holy Trinity of the 1960's, the barren 1970's and glorious 1980's are relived. As an Evertonian, I have loved researching, writing and drawing the history of one of the World greatest football Clubs therefore it must be a story every Evertonian, and football fan will love to read and must own.
