Synopsis

Bobby Charlton is arguably the most popular sporting icon this country has ever known and MY LIFE IN FOOTBALL is a fitting celebration of his remarkable career.

Combining both his Manchester United and England playing days, the book is structured chronologically and focuses on the key incidents in Sir Bobby's football story - the famous, and the less well-known - illustrated with photographs of the very moments in question. These photographs, many of which have rarely been seen, are accompanied by extended captions to bring them to life. Every shot tells a wonderful story and offers an insight into the character of the man, providing a remarkable visual commentary of a phenomenal sporting life.

Author Bio
Sir Bobby Charlton was born in 1937 in Ashington, Northumberland. He made his first team debut for Manchester United in October 1956 and won the FA Cup, three Division One championships and the European Cup with United. He joined the board of the club in 1984, a position he still holds today. Charlton was a key member of the victorious England World Cup side of 1966, and played 106 times for his country. He was awarded the OBE in 1969, the CBE in 1973 and was knighted in 1994, the first footballer to gain such an honour since Sir Stanley Matthews in 1965.
