George Best

As well as the legions of football fans who watched, awestruck, as he played, he also touched the hearts of everyone with whom he came into contact on a day to day basis: from club managers to the groundsmen at Old Trafford. Bernie Smith is an avid collector of everything to do with the late, great man and Maureen Hunt worked in the newspaper industry for over 20 years. While gathering memorabilia they discovered that almost every keepsake, souvenir or trophy has a humorous, heart-warming or poignant story attached to it. Packed with anecdotes and rare photographs, this delightful book is a wonderful way to commemorate the man who was both a hero and a friend to so many people.
