Alex James: Life of a Football Legend

by John Harding

From his deep-lying inside-forward position, James was the creative hub of the classic Arsenal team of the 1930's, collecting the ball from defenders, then spraying passes to either wing. This title recreates the life and times of a remarkable man and one of the greatest players in the history of the game.

Reviews

[John Newcomb · Rating 3 out of 5]

John Harding is the best of the Arsenal historians and this honest biography of Arsenal's first super star gives a very different insight into the Arsenal of the 1930s to those biographies of Chapman, Male and Hapgood.
