Rate this book
If a picture paints a thousand words... the images contained in PARKLIFE are enough to fill the British Library.

Spanning 133 unforgettable years, PARKLIFE is a stunning, limited edition coffee table book celebrating the history of Goodison Park in more than 200 powerful and rarely-seen pictures.

The final chapter includes exclusive behind the scenes images of Goodison's emotional farewell match against Southampton.

But there is much, much more. Parklife contains images of the construction of the Bullens Road Stand 99 years ago, 1920s wing wizard Sammy Chedgzoy dancing down the Goodison Road touchline, Gwladys Street after the blitz of 1940 - and action shots from the night Inter Milan brought European Cup football to Merseyside for the first time.

A stunning, limited-edition coffee table book of more than 300 pages, Parklife will host pictures from almost every decade of Goodison's long history - right up to the present day with behind the scenes shots of Goodison's last dance against Southampton.

A nostalgia purchase. I love Everton and had to have this. I grew up going to Goodison with my Dad. He took me to my first game and loved hanging out with me and my Everton mates in the Winslow.
It was an emotional day my final visit and the the last ever game there.
I love the place and will miss it, although the new ground is ace.
This book is lovely and solid, the pictures aren't amazing to be honest but I really enjoyed reading it cover to cover.
