Bobby Moore was the embodiment of all that was great about English football. Captain of West Ham United, whom he led to the 1964 FA Cup and the 1965 European Cup Winners' Cup, and Captain of England in their triumph in the World Cup in 1966; he was loved and respected throughout the world. In this definitive and authorised biography, award-winning sportswriter Jeff Powell - for many years a close friend and confidant to Moore and his family - has written a powerful and fitting tribute to this legendary man.
