Shankly - Bill Shankly

BILL SHANKLY is one of the greatest figures in football. His only authorised autobiography was a best-seller in the 1970s and now it is being published again for the first time. Released to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the great man's arrival at Anfield, SHANKLY: MY STORY will give a new generation of football fans a unique insight into the real man behind the legend. Ghost-written by John Roberts - one of the only journalists Shankly trusted to tell his life story - this is the tale of his rise from a poor Scottish mining village to international fame as creator of the most successful side of the era - Liverpool. This book provides in-depth analysis in the inimitable Shankly style of the players he nurtured - from Ian St John to Emlyn Hughes and Kevin Keegan - and revealing descriptions of the methods that made Liverpool uniquely feared and respected.
