Volume Two of David Woods' four-volume history of Bristol City, from the club's beginnings to the modern age. In Bristol City: The Early Years he reported the clubs history to the outbreak of The Great War. Now, in From War to War, he carries the story from the Kaiser up to and be-yond the death of Hitler. It is an extraordinary tale. Read about the intrepid supporter who walked to every game, home and away; the player smuggled on at half-time in place of another; Leicester players having to walk to Ashton Gate from Redcliffe Street; and the big crowd that turned up expecting to see Tottenham. Instead they found their heroes playing Coventry Reserves!
