Review

This is one of many "pocket" guides to Euro 2000 and is certainly one for the compulsive soccer fan, rather than your causal armchair fan. It, like most of the other publications cashing in on Euro fever, describes itself as "the definitive guide to the summer's main event" and this claim certainly has some foundation. The book is literally packed with facts and figures on games, matches, players and tournaments. There's also player profiles, a betting guide and information on the qualifying tournament. In fact there's almost too much information packed into this tiny little book; the result is a little dry and analytical and the typeface is so small that reading this in the glare of the TV screen as you try to follow a game would probably leave you squinting for a week. Also, there are no photographs and this does not help to lift the "serious" style. Avid Euro 2000 fans will devour this info-packed guide but for the casual fan, it's probably a little too heavy-going. --Joanne Wells
