Praise for World Soccer Legends
These books address a largely unfilled niche: short, highly readable biographies of contemporary soccer stars. The texts are printed over and around voluminous, richly printed photographs and include many pages of scoring statistics and league standings, awards, even a QR code to direct readers to a video of Zlatan's 40-yard bicycle-kick goal in a 2012 match against England. Frequent references to great players of the past-Maradona, Pelé, Cruyff, Eusebio-lend the books a welcome historical context.... These entries are excellent....
