Description |
John Allan's 'The Story of the Rangers' is one of the all-time great soccer histories. Only a handful of famous Scottish and English clubs published comprehensive histories back in the 1920s. The Story of the Rangers was the earliest, the biggest, and the best. It is the detail that sets 'The Story of the Rangers' apart. The book runs to 328 pages, plus illustrations. It entertains and informs the reader with microscopic attention to detail. The success of the book encouraged John Allan to write two sequels. 'Eleven Great Years' continued the story from 1924 to 1935. Rangers '18 Eventful Years' straddled the war years, covering the period from 1936 to 1951. This distinguished trilogy stands as a landmark in the literature of football. John Allan's books are treasured by supporters of Rangers Football Club and by all with a keen interest in the history of British soccer.
