I have always been awestruck when it comes to Jock Stein. What he did for Celtic back in 67 being the main point of fascination. This definitive biography gives you a good look at the main and his life story. If you want to know more about Jock Stein and Scottish Football from the 60s through the 70s I recommend this book.

Where this is an Audible I can say the Story was engaging and the performance fit the story, both a hard 4 stars therefore over 4 stars for this.

Discipline, determination and a willingness to learn and adapt made Jock become the larger than life character. It's such principles one needs to curve out a life
