Manchester United continues to be right at the top of the English game & one of the biggest names in club football around the world.

With over 75 million fans worldwide, a roll of honour stretching the length of the M62, & an annual income of more than £200 million, Manchester United can justifiably claim to be the biggest club in world football. & yet, until now, its story has never been fully told. Unofficial & unbiased, MANCHESTER UNITED: THE BIOGRAPHY has everything a football fan needs to know about the club, from its birth in the smog-bound mud of Newton Heath through to its emergence as the Premier League's dominant force in the twenty-first century. From working man's team to rich man's plaything, from the solid yeomanry of Lancelot Holliday Richardson to the dazzling artistry of Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro, award-winning journalist & lifelong red Jim White has produced an unmissable account of the club's history. By speaking to everyone from fans & backroom staff to players & board members, he has unearthed a wealth of new material from voices not always heard in the great United story. It is all here: the Munich air crash of 1958; the gilded days of Law, Best & Charlton; the high drama of the 1999 & 2008 Champions' League Finals
- all observed with a quizzical eye. But this book also covers acres of fresh ground as it seeks to discover what sort of beast is today's United. Is it a football team? A commercial juggernaut? A point of secular worship? & who are the people who made it what it is? In Jim White's peerless hands the story comes vividly to life.
