If football is England's national game, then the FA Cup Final is a national institution, an event that inspires hopes, fears, triumph, drama and debate like no other annual sporting competition. Bringing together original match reports from leading sportswriters, full details of teams, managers and their paths to Wembley, this illustrated history of the FA Cup covers every year of the championship from its beginnings in 1923 to the David and Goliath battle of 1992, up to the 1994 finals. 300 rare photographs, reports and analyses from the archives of The Daily Mail capture the excitement and anticipation of the fans and players and make this the authoritative account of one of the world's great sporting events.
