Rowdies Memorabilia - Bobby Moore Biography


 "Bobby Moore" - The Definitive biography of Bobby Moore, the former defender.
New edition of the bestselling biography of the England football legend. 
Bobby Moore was the embodiment of all that was great about English football. 
Captain of West Ham United, whom he led to the 1964 FA Cup and the 
1965 European Cup Winners' Cup, and Captain of England in their triumph 
in the World Cup in 1966; 
he was loved and respected throughout the world. 
In this definitive and authorised biography, award-winning sports 
writer Jeff Powell - for many years a close family friend to Moore 
and his family - has created a powerful and fitting tribute to the legend, recreating 
the golden era of English football and the man at its helm. 
Apart from passionate accounts of Moore's greatest moments in football, 
Powell's unique access to Moore and his family enabled him to reveal 
the very private side of this supremely gentle man. 
Insights into Moore's friendships with Franz Beckenbauer, Eusebio and Pele, 
as well as with his 1966 World-Cup winning teammates and managers 
Alf Ramsey for England and Ron Greenwood at West Ham, 
illuminate this extraordinary story of a footballing life. 
Related here also is the inside story of Moore's life before and after football 
and how he found true happiness before the tragedy of his premature 
death from the cancer he kept a secret.
Published in 2014.
