Synopsis

Compiled by dedicated Foxes' duo Dave Smith and Paul Taylor, Of Fossils and Foxes, volume three, is bigger, better, and more comprehensive than anything that has gone before. Nearly 550 large-size pages mean that this edition will be 40% bigger than volume two and a whopping 80% bigger than the original 1989 publication. Once again, the club's history is presented from three different viewpoints: a narrative history; a complete who's who covering every first-class player; and a complete set of season-by-season results, scorers, and line ups, covering every first class fixture and much more. Simply the most comprehensive club history on the market!

About this title

Review:

"There simply isn't another club history as comprehensive as Of Fossils & Foxes." --Soar Media

"It's a winner! They [Smith and Taylor] really have excelled themselves. They have used the nine years since edition two was published to resource, research and rediscover City's rich and hugely eventful history. Smith and Taylor can be proud of their efforts. Edition three is a whopping hard-bound 544 pages, 40 per cent bigger than its predecessor. It is packed with well-written narrative and illustrated by more than 1,600 images. And it is printed in full colour... Great for those who love their facts and figures, great for those who love a good read, and great for anyone connected with the club." --The Leicester Mercury

About the Author:

Since the first edition of Of Fossils & Foxes Dave Smith has retired, but still contributes to the Leicester City match programme. To prevent boredom setting in he has already commenced work on the next project, alongside fellow club historian John Hutchinson, which will hopefully see an extensive online club archive created over the next few years. Paul Taylor recently completed his 21st individual season as an ever-present in the stands or on the terraces. He works in film culture in London.
