Seller's Description:
Very Good. GREAT BOOK! NO SPINE CREASES & MILD SHELF WEAR ON COVER. SMUDGED ON EDGE BUT NO MARKING IN TEXT. Library Journal: With the 1994 World Cup just around the corner, the author offers a new edition of a book he wrote in 1976 ( LJ 10/1/76. o.p.). In this update, he chronicles World Cup activities from 1930 to 1990, the changing aspects of the game, and the rise of soccer in the United States. The appendixes feature a glossary, a list of governing body rules and members, plus a record of Olympic and club champions. The difference between the earlier edition and the current study lies in Gardner's analysis of soccer in the United States between 1970 and the present--in particular, the failure of the United States Soccer Federation to establish a quality professional league similar to what exists in Europe and South America. Soccer enthusiasts will enjoy reading Gardner's informative book. Recommended for public libraries. -L.R. Little, Penticton P.L., B. C.
