  There's an old Italian saying: There are two things you can never change - your mother and your team. This bond between a fan and his football club lasts a lifetime, developing over the years with the highs and lows that the passion can bring. Sunshine on Leith: Hibernian's Finest Sons is a book about that bond. The greats of the club are all here - Smith, Reilly and the Baker Boy from the Famous Five era - alongside Turnbull's Heroes, Stanton, Gordon, Cropley and O'Rourke. First published in 1995, the author has now updated the book to accommodate recent heroes who have won a special place in the hearts of Hibs fans and captured the imagination of football lovers all over. He describes how Frank Sauzee, Russell Latapy, John Yogi Hughes and manager Alex McLeish have all contributed to the Leith team's new lease of life which has produced some of the finest football at Easter Road in over 20 years. Hibs fans all know what the club means to them. But here, in their own words, is what club and fans mean to Hibernian's Finest Sons.
