'Immaculately written, inspiring, sad and elegiac.' Daily Telegraph
With a new introduction by David Peace Duncan Edwards played his
first game for Manchester United at the age of fifteen and Walter
Winterbottom, then England manager, called him 'the spirit of
British football'. On GBP15-a-week, Edwards was the most prized of
the Busby Babes. Then in February 1958 came Munich. Half a decade
later George Best represented United reborn. 'Georgie' of the
boutiques and dolly birds; 'El Beatle' of the European Cup in '68
and European Player of the Year; in the opinion of Pele, the most
naturally talented footballer that ever lived. Retired at 27 and
reduced to the role of Chelsea barfly and tabloid perennial;
George, where did it all go wrong?
