The Great Crowd Roars: A Selection of the Best Welsh Football Writing

From the publisher:

Our premier soccer clubs thrive. The national side is rejuvenated.

This anthology brings together football heroes and favourite grounds, the great crowds and the historic moments as seen and experienced by short-story writers, poets, journalists, historians and even famous players themselves.

Here Cardiff's Dannie Abse lines up alongside the Rhondda's Ron Berry, John Toshack pens a poem on the immortal John Charles, and the great Trevor Ford writes about himself.

A new-look best Welsh football XI that will enthral and entertain everyone with a love of the game.

The author:

Gareth Williams also published Sport with the Library of Wales series in 2007 and The First Fifteen: A Selection of the Best Rugby Writing in 2011.
