The Toon: A Complete History of Newcastle United Football Club (Mainstream Sport) - Softcover
This is the full story, unofficial and uncensored, of Newcastle United Football Club. From its birth in the 1890s to its rebirth in the 1990s, it tells of a small soccer club, long in the shadow of an enormous rival, which grew to eclipse that rival—and every other club in Great Britain. The book describes the attacking sides of the 1930s and the Cup giants of the 1950s; gives us the European conquerors of the 1960s and the Macdonald and Keegan squads of the 1970s and 1980s, before showing us how the most exciting side of all, the international team of all the talents, was assembled to take Newcastle United into the 21st century.
