The
Mini Rough Guide to Liverpool FC (£7.60)
Imagine it’s autumn 1998 all over again. Roy Evans
has gone and Gérard Houllier has just taken sole charge of
a demoralised team, burdened by the freight of unparalleled heritage
and struggling to stay in the Premiership’s top 10. What would
you think if someone came up to you and told you that, in three
years’ time, Liverpool would win five trophies in six months,
culminating in victory over the reigning European champions? [read

Faith
of Our Fathers by Alan Edge (£6.39)
As the author describes his years of loyal support, the
reader can soon see the indoctrination undergone by many a youngster
(usually at the hands of an enthusiastic parent), or the similarity
between penance and cold, rainy away evening fixtures at the other
end of the country (in all likelihood ending in a scoreless draw
or one-nil defeat). While the average Liverpool supporter has probably

Hillsborough
by Phil Scraton (£6.39)
ALL PROCEEDS FROM THIS BOOK WILL GO THE THE
HILLSBOROUGH JUSTICE CAMPAIGN
The Hillsborough disaster left 96 men, women and
children dead, hundreds injured and thousands traumatised. This
account details the tragic day and the subsequent seven-week-long
trial. It reveals the contradictions between the Taylor Inquiry,
which found the main reason for the disaster to be falure of police
control, the South Yorkshire police acceptance of liability in negligence
and the controversial inquest system which returned verdicts of
accidental death when negligence had been clearly established. It
also exposes the appalling treatment endured by the bereaved and
survivors in the immediate aftermath [read

Official
LFC History (£14)
If it weren't for one man, Liverpool Football Club
would never have been born. When Everton left Anfield in a dispute
over rent in 1892, club Chairman John Houlding stayed behind - along
with a handful of supporters and just three first-team players.
But he was determined to see football continue at the ground. He
formed a new club from scratch, chose the name Liverpool....and
created a legend. Even John Houlding couldn't have predicted how
successful it would become. More than 100 years on, no English club
can match the Liverpool FC roll of honour: League champions 18 times,
FA Cup winners six times, League Cup winners six times, European
Cup winners four times and UEFA Cup winners three times [read
