Beckham Experiment: How the World’s Most Famous Athlete Tried to Conquer America $11.99 The January 2007 press conference announcing that international icon David Beckham was coming to the Los Angeles Galaxy made front-page headlines on both sides of the Atlantic. By every yardstick, the “Beckham experiment” has been a smashing branding success: David and his wife, Victoria (a.k.a. Posh Spice), have raked in multimillion-dollar endorsement contracts from IBM, Coca-Cola, Motorola, Nike, and others, not to mention their own lucrative Beckham Fragrance business. Unfortunately, in terms of soccer, the experiment was an unmitigated disaster: Hopelessly dysfunctional, the Galaxy blundered from loss to loss, coach to coach, even missing the easy-to-make Major League Soccer playoffs. This book by Sports Illustrated senior writer Grant Wahl unfolds a real-life cautionary tale about how sports and celebrity can meet — and collide. |

Beckham: Both Feet on the Ground: An Autobiography $10.99 The Last Word on David BeckhamThere is only one David Beckham — and it’s not always the one you read about in the newspapers and magazines or see in the movies. From humble East End London beginnings, the boy with prodigious soccer skills grew up to be one of the most gifted athletes of his generation as well as a sex symbol and fashion icon. Along the way he married Spice Girl Victoria “Posh” Adams, and together they inhabit a celebrity whirlwind of Diana-esque proportions. In Both Feet on the Ground, David talks candidly about the perils of fame (his wife and son were the targets of a notorious kidnapping plot and he is the subject of almost daily tabloid rumors); the struggle to balance his roles as a devoted husband and besotted father with his globetrotting existence as an international soccer star; the behind-the-scenes stories of his most memorable and heartbreaking (if only he could retake that infamous penalty kick against Portugal in Euro 2004) career moments; the controversy surrounding his first year at Real Madrid after his $41 million transfer from Manchester United, the storied English team he joined as a teenager and led for more than a decade; and, finally, his love of America, where he plans to start a soccer school and perhaps, one day, even play professionally.Both Feet on the Ground is David Beckham’s own extraordinary story, told by the man who knows him best — David Beckham. |

Behind the Curtain: Travels in Eastern Europe Football $18.95 From the war-ravaged streets of Sarajevo, where turning up for training involved dodging snipers’ bullets, to the crumbling splendor of Budapest’s Bozsik Stadium, where the likes of Puskas and Kocsis masterminded the fall of England, the landscape of Eastern Europe has changed immeasurably since the fall of communism. Jonathan Wilson has traveled extensively behind the old Iron Curtain, viewing life beyond the fall of the Berlin Wall through the lens of soccer. Where once the state-controlled teams of the Eastern bloc passed their way with crisp efficiency—a sort of communist version of total soccer—to considerable success on the European and international stages, today the beautiful game in the East has been opened up to the free market, and throughout the region a sense of chaos pervades. The threat of totalitarian interference no longer remains; but in its place mafia control is generally accompanied with a crippling lack of funds. Jonathan Wilson goes in search of the spirit of Hungary’s Golden Squad of the early 1950s; charts the disintegration of the soccer superpower that was the former Yugoslavia; follows a sorry tale of corruption, mismanagement, and Armenian cognac through the Caucasuses; reopens the case of Russia’s greatest soccer player, Eduard Streltsov; and talks to Jan Tomaszewski about an autumn night at Wembley in 1973. |

Belarusian Mixed Martial Artists: Andrei Arlovski $8.96 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Andrei Arlovski (Belarusian: , born February 4, 1979) is a Belarusian mixed martial arts fighter and a former Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight champion. He currently competes for the Strikeforce promotion. He is considered to be one of the top ten ranked heavyweights in the world by multiple MMA publications. Arlovski was born in Bobruisk and raised in Minsk, in the Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic of the former USSR (now Belarus). When he was younger, bullies often picked on him and beat him up. In 1994, when he was 14 years old, he finally had enough and started lifting weights to put on muscle and, he hoped, to help him deal with these bullies. Andrei only took up martial arts at the age of 16 having previously been interested in soccer. It was an interest in personal fitness and conditioning that led Arlovski to take an interest in combat sports. Enrolling at the police academy in Minsk, Arlovski combined his interest in a career in law enforcement with his growing martial arts participation by taking up the required police defense course in Sambo and quickly showed himself to be a highly competent Sambo exponent. In 1998 Andrei was defeated by Sean Nagy in a 5 round military MMA fight which is not recorded on his official record. In 1999, Andrei won the European Youth Sambo Championship and the World Youth Championship. Not long after, Andrei became the first Master of Sports and then International Master of Sports. He also took a silver medal at the Sambo World Cup and another silver medal at the World Sambo Championship. Arlovski began taking a greater interest in other martial arts, studying kickboxing and developing his striking skills to complement his Sambo-based grappling abilities. At the age of 20, Arlovski bega… More: |

Excerpt: Senior club appearances and goalscounted for the domestic league only.* Appearances (Goals) Alexander ‘Alex’ Bunbury (born June 18, 1967 in Plaisance, Guyana) is a former Canadian professional footballer, who played as a striker. Bunbury started playing professionally with the Hamilton Steelers in Canada, also having one-year spells in the Canadian Soccer League with the Toronto Blizzard and Montreal Supra. In 1993, after an unassuming season for West Ham United (only six appearances overall), he moved to Portugal’s C.S. Marítimo, going on to become the Madeira club’s all-time leading goalscorer in the first division, with 59 goals in 165 games. In his second season, he won the Foreign Player of the Year award. His final season proved to be the most prolific, when he scored 15 league goals. In early 1999, after requesting a move to play closer to his hometown of Montreal, Bunbury returned to North America, and retired after two seasons with the Kansas City Wizards of the Major League Soccer. Subsequently, he took up coaching, first with Bangu FC, then at the Minnesota Thunder Academy (MTA). Bunbury was inducted into the Canadian Soccer Hall of Fame in April 2006.

Born in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, Pelter emigrated with his family to New Zealand at the age of eight and entered the New Zealand Football Academy whilst twelve years old. He exhibited a love for football in his school work, writing an essay on his personal hero Roy Keane, whilst also supporting English team Blackburn Rovers. He went on to play in the National Soccer League for Christchurch Technical, Ferrymead Bays and Central United. He was taken back to England at the age of fifteen by New Zealand Knights manager Chris Turner who introduced him to the scouting teams at Bolton Wanderers, Chelsea and Swansea City. After recovering from a serious back injury on his return, Pelter moved to New Zealand Football Championship team Canterbury United in 2005. Due to the semi-professional nature of football in New Zealand, Pelter had to take on other jobs to finance his football regime, with his mother later commenting “After training, he’d go to work in a bar until two in the morning to fund his career, he was running, training and swimming on his own, he used to get up on cold mornings on his own to go running”. The winner of Canterbury United’s “Defender of the Year” award and runner-up for “Player of the Year” in only his first season with the club, Pelter subsequently attracted the attention of European clubs in 2007 following his international progress.

Carlos Tevez: The Biography of Manchester City’s Super Striker $24.95 Carlos Tevez is one of the Premier League’s most lethal finishers, loved by Manchester United and Argentina fans alike, and respected by many more in the world of soccer. After completing a protracted and controversial move to Manchester from West Ham in August 2007, Tevez quickly established himself as a fans’ favorite as he developed a deadly partnership with Wayne Rooney up front. During his first season with the club he scored an incredible 19 goals, which were instrumental in sealing the Reds’ Premier League and Champions League Double in 2008. In his second season at United he has added the Club World Cup and League Cup to his trophy haul, scoring his first United hat trick in the process against Blackburn Rovers. And it isn’t just United fans who hold Tevez in great esteem—he still commands a special place in the hearts of West Ham supporters after he scored an incredible winner against Manchester United on the last day of the 2006/7 season, which ensured West Ham’s top-flight survival. Thanks to his stints at Boca juniors and Brazilian side Corinthians at the start of his career, he is also a popular figure across South America. On the international stage, he scored a phenomenal eight goals to seal gold medal victory for Argentina at the 2004 Olympic Games, and is a regular in the Argentina side. |

David Beckham: My Side $10.99 The Last Word on David Beckham There is only one David Beckham — and it’s not always the one you read about in the newspapers and magazines or see in the movies. From humble East End London beginnings, the boy with prodigious soccer skills grew up to be one of the most gifted athletes of his generation as well as a sex symbol and fashion icon. Along the way he married Spice Girl Victoria “Posh” Adams, and together they inhabit a celebrity whirlwind of Diana-esque proportions. In Both Feet on the Ground, David talks candidly about the perils of fame (his wife and son were the targets of a notorious kidnapping plot and he is the subject of almost daily tabloid rumors); the struggle to balance his roles as a devoted husband and besotted father with his globetrotting existence as an international soccer star; the behind-the-scenes stories of his most memorable and heartbreaking (if only he could retake that infamous penalty kick against Portugal in Euro 2004) career moments; the controversy surrounding his first year at Real Madrid after his $41 million transfer from Manchester United, the storied English team he joined as a teenager and led for more than a decade; and, finally, his love of America, where he plans to start a soccer school and perhaps, one day, even play professionally. Both Feet on the Ground is David Beckham’s own extraordinary story, told by the man who knows him best — David Beckham. |

Emancipation through Muscles $34.95 Although the study of Jewish identity has generated a growing body of work, the topic of sport has received scant attention in Jewish historiography. Emancipation through Muscles redresses this balance by analyzing the pertinence of sports to such issues as race, ethnicity, and gender in Jewish history and by examining the role of modern sport within European Jewry. The accomplishments of Jews in the intellectual arena and their notable presence among Nobel Prize recipients have often overshadowed their achievements in sports. The pursuit of sports among Jews in Europe was never a marginal phenomenon, however. In the first third of the twentieth century numerous Jewish sport organizations were founded throughout Europe, and prowess in the realm called “muscle Jewry” by the Zionists was a symbol of widespread pride among European Jews. Some Jewish teams were remarkably successful: the legendary Austrian soccer champion Hakoah Vienna was arguably the most visible Jewish presence in interwar Vienna, and many readers will be surprised to learn that outstanding soccer teams such as Ajax Amsterdam and Tottenham Hotspur are still considered “Jewish teams.”The contributors to this volume, an international group of scholars from a variety of fields, explore the diverse relationships between Jews and modern sports in Europe. |

Excerpt: Phoenix from the Flames was a regular feature on the BBC/ITV show Fantasy Football League, which involved presenters David Baddiel and Frank Skinner recreating a famous moment from footballing history with one of the people involved at the time. Up the last episode of the programme, on July 3, 2004, the number of recreations had reached 84. The Loveday-King sketch (No. 68) of Fantasy World Cup was broadcast in the final programme of that series. When Fantasy Euro 2004 started, the first sketch involving David Seaman had the caption “72″ on it, and all following sketches went on from that. It’s unclear whether more sketches were broadcast in the years before, or if the makers of the programme simply got their figures wrong. The following have all been the subject of Phoenixes but the numbers in what they appeared are not known by this author. A sketch in this made-for-video special involved a NASA astronaut entering David and Frank’s flat asking for fourteen Phoenix’s to make up part of a football time capsule to shoot into space to educate extraterrestrial life forms of the game. After finding only thirteen (numbers 1, 5, 9, 2, 14, 21, 3, 10, 6, 19, 11, 15 and 20, in that order) the astronaut revealed himself to be Dave Beasant – they then went o… More: |

At the top of the Algerian football league system, it is the country’s primary football competition. Contested by 18 clubs, it operates on a system of promotion and relegation. It was created in 1962, when Algeria became an independent nation. Until 1950, only regional leagues (Algiers, Constantine, Oran) were contested. Some ‘national’ playoffs were played in the first decade of the 20th century, first in 1904. Between 1920 and 1956 the winners played off for the North African Championship, together with league winners from Morocco and Tunisia. Between 1957 and 1962 a North African Championship without participation from Morocco and Tunisia (who had gained independence) was organised as “Algerian championship”.

Football and Fascism: The National Game under Mussolini $37.95 This is a cultural history of Italian Fascism viewed through the lens of soccer. The 1930s were the zenith of achievement for Italian football—Italy hosted and won the 1934 World Cup and retained the trophy in 1938. At club level, Calcio was reorganized into a national league, after which the first Italian club teams emerged to dominate European competition. It was at this time that Mussolini’s party institutionalized soccer as a fascist game. Italian Fascism fully exploited the opportunities football provided to shape public opinion, penetrate daily life, and reinforce conformity. By politicizing the game, Fascism also sought to enhance the regime’s international prestige and inculcate nationalist values. Football and Fascism is an original look at the appropriation of sport to serve political ends during a dark period of Italian history. |

Fowler: My Autobiography $13.95 Pronounced as the greatest goalscoring talent since Jimmy Greaves, 17-year old Robbie Fowler was immediately catapulted to fame and fortune. The thin, baby-faced Toxteth lad was now a millionaire, an idol, and inspiration to every kid who kicked a soccer ball. Yet his incredible potential was never quite realized. Injuries and persistent rumors of drug abuse and depression meant that he never became the world-beater so many predicted. This is a fascinating and unbelievably frank insight into the game, and a candid account of an incredible career, taking us behind the closed doors of professional soccer to expose what really happens at both club and international level. |

It is a volunteer based organization which oversees the senior men’s and women’s national teams for international play, as well as the respective junior sides (U-20 and U-17 for men and women). Internally, it looks over national amateur club championships for both National Senior Men and Senior Women, U-18, U-16 and U-14 (all levels boys and girls). Provincial and municipal associations are responsible for organizing most amateur leagues and refereeing appointments. The founding meeting of the Dominion of Canada Football Association took place on May 24, 1912. The organization joined FIFA in 1913. In 1928, the FA resigned from FIFA until 1946, following the example of British associations in a dispute over broken time payments to amateur players. The Association has hosted three FIFA tournaments, the FIFA U-17 World Cup Canada 1987, the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup Canada 2002, and the FIFA U-20 World Cup Canada 2007. The Association is expected to make a bid for the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015. The Association’s national teams have won eight confederation championships. The |

Hype and Glory: The Decline and Fall of the England Football Team, from Revie to McClaren $29.95 England has singularly failed to make any impact at either the World Cup or the European Championships for more than 40 years—this book explains why, with the help of exclusive interviews with players, managers, and commentators There have been 20 major international soccer tournaments since that Saturday in July 1966 when Bobby Moore lifted the World Cup trophy for England. As each of these competitions has come around, a wave of expectation in the country has been followed, with seeming inevitability, by disappointment just weeks later. But with just three semi-final appearances to show for more than 40 years of effort and pain, why does England—as a team and as a nation—continue to believe that it has an almost divine right to succeed in international soccer? Tracing the fortunes of 10 England managers—Ramsey, Revie, Greenwood, Robson, Taylor, Venables, Hoddle, Eriksson, McLaren, and Capello—this book shows just why the England team has struggled to live with the weight of expectation. Full of dramatic on-field action and dressing room gossip, it vividly recreates the highs and lows, the agony and ecstacy, the close calls and the humiliations, and pinpoints precisely why things have always gone so badly wrong. |

Ibb – Smart But Foolish $25.04 Our Masters Have Gone Crazy Again chronicles the tenure of one of Africa’s most dreaded dictators and terrorists, Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, a.k.a, IBB. It details the political, social, and economic policies of the former ruler of Africa’s most populous nation, Nigeria. A self-described “evil genius,” Babangida led Nigerians through a tortuous and deceptive political and economic transition that ended in a coup d’etat. Perhaps because of his craftiness, it wasn’t until the end of his military career that the dictator’s ruthlessness and lust for power became obvious. This volume answers most of the unresolved questions about the man known as Maradona by Nigerians. This nickname arose from his widely known skills at cheating and diverting in the same manner as Argentinean soccer genius, Diego Maradona, who infamously cheated to earn victory over England in the 1986 World Cup. Author Abejide Olusegun examines the dictator’s purported involvement in the murders of Dele Giwa, Ken Saro Wiwa, Mama Vasta, and many others, along with his frequent detention of late legal luminary, Gani Fawehinmi, and his connection to the corrupt Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI).Our Masters Have Gone Crazy Again attempts answer some of the riddles surrounding IBB and raise questions about any role he may have in Nigeria’s future. |

The team is dubbed “El Poderoso de la Montaña” or the powerful of the mountain due to Medellín’s geographical location high in the Andean mountains. The rivalry is especially strong due to each team’s main support club, Rexixtenxia Norte for Medellín and Los Del Sur for Atlético Nacional. The two clubs are named with the location that they occupy in the stadium where Rexixtenxia occupies the section behind the northern goal and Los Del Sur occupy the section behind the southern goal. In 2004 Medellín and Nacional classified to the final of the Mustang Cup; in Antioquia everybody was very excited because this was the first “Paisa” final of the history of the short tournaments.
