Of Amos, `Erbert and Friends; Flying High with Huddersfield Town is
a book in which the author combines the fiction of conversation
with historical facts to provide a fan’s eye view of a remarkable
football club. It begins with the founding of Huddersfield Town in
1908, and its brave survival in a rugby league stronghold (despite
the dastardly endeavours of Leeds United to close the club down via
what was close to being association football’s first ever
franchise deal). It describes the club’s halcyon years between
the two World Wars; twenty years in which Huddersfield Town were
`Thrice Champions’ of the Football League, runners up for the
title on three occasions, won the FA Cup and appeared in a total of
five finals; a period of success galvanised by football’s first
ever great manager, Herbert Chapman, and overseen by the club’s
visionary chairman, Sir Amos Brook Hirst. The book also deals with
some 75 years of post war `Town’ history; providing a fan’s eye
view of various disasters and triumphs; all milestone events in a
rollercoaster ride that has recently seen `The Terriers’ restored
to English football’s top flight.
