Description
Book SynopsisTom Finney personifies a vanished golden era of football, playing his entire career under the maximum wage and never wavering in his loyalty to Preston North End. A true gentleman of the game, who is still justifiably idolised more than 40 years since he retired from football, Finney recalls the highs and lows of his marvellous career with a warmth and affection that will appeal to all who read his story. But Finney''s life has been about much more than football, and he writes movingly about his current role as full-time carer to his beloved wife, Elsie.
