A museum experience without the stuffiness, this book brings a long history to life through diverse illustrations and photographs of relics and memorabilia. It provides education and entertainment - a delight for fans and historians alike. Text is in English, French, Spanish and German - but is never too dense or unattainable - just enough to fill in the details of the large and vibrant images between the covers. If you were entertained by "The English Game" this book will fill out your understanding of what started out as "kicking a ball in a pattern of rules" in such disparate corners of the globe as China, Japan and Greece and has ended, in these days, in what is played in the classical European form across the world - Soccer! Football!

The dolls might be a thing of the past, but collecting goes on. This book describes, in great detail, the evolution of the toys and all of the accoutrement created by Mattel to fill out their range. Glossy full colour photos throughout enhance the verbal descriptions of the text. VERY GOOD.
