Covering the whole squad, including key unsung members of the backroom team, and the inspiring figure of Sir Alf Ramsey, The Team of '66 explores the very different individuals who pulled together to create one of the iconic moments in Britain's post-war history.

With a portrait of each player, man by man, this book examines their backgrounds and personalities to piece together the ingredients of a world-beating team.
