BEGINNING with a history of the world’s greatest team sport tournament – and England’s part in it – this book goes some way towards setting the scene for the summer ahead.
Informative and illuminated by a series of excellent photographs, it provides a suitable reminder of previous tournaments, with profiles of golden boot winners offering a nice additional touch.
The team summaries given are what one would expect to see, but some are too brief.
Finishing with a pull-out wallchart, the book also provides a guide to potential star players (including some names readers might not be familiar with) and venues.
