Revolution of Wolves charts the dramatic progress of Wolverhampton
Wanderers both on and off the pitch over the last 20 years,
starting with the club’s first promotion to the Premier League.
From local-born benefactor Sir Jack Hayward to global investment
conglomerate Fosun International, the boardroom changes have been
matched by those in the dugout as Wolves went from a traditional
English-based 4-4-2 team under Dave Jones and Mick McCarthy to a
cosmopolitan European outfit under Nuno Espirito Santo. The book
brings us exclusive interviews with those at the heart of the
story. Alongside all the promotion winners, managers such as Glenn
Hoddle and Paul Lambert give their first interviews about their
time at Wolves. We hear stories from the likes of Paul Ince, Joleon
Lescott, Karl Henry, Conor Coady, Diogo Jota and Ruben Neves as
well as boardroom insight from Jez Moxey, Steve Morgan and Jeff
Shi. Revolution of Wolves is the most comprehensive and
authoritative work ever written about the modern Wolverhampton
Wanderers.
Bitten by Wolves takes us on a glorious yet tumultuous journey
through the modern history of Wolverhampton Wanderers. From lifting
league titles and pioneering European club competition to twice
going bankrupt and languishing in the Fourth Division, Wolves have
experienced extreme highs and lows. The author spent a year
speaking to former players, staff, supporters and others who
witnessed or played a part in some of the most successful,
turbulent and defining moments in the club's recent history. Wolves
have always been about much more than the results on the pitch.
It's the club's place in the Wolverhampton community that underpins
its identity. Today, Wolves are going through existential change
under the ownership of a Chinese investment conglomerate. The
author has gained behind-the-scenes insight into the current
ownership and management while revealing how Wolves became the club
it is today. Filled with fascinating untold stories and eye-witness
accounts, Bitten by Wolves tells the definitive story of the club's
evolution.
