Jock Stein

This definitive football book is being re-published to commemorate the fortieth anniversary of Celtic's legendary victory in the 1967 European Cup final in Lisbon. Archie Macpherson's critically acclaimed and bestselling biography reappraises Jock Stein's career and looks closely at the personality of the man whose shrewdness and cunning stamped him eventually with greatness. In examining the strengths and weaknesses of this major figure, Macpherson's compelling narrative will nevertheless lead no-one to doubt the sincerity of Bill Shankly's ultimate accolade to Stein in 1967: 'John, you are immortal now.'
