'...both a fascinating personal story and an evocation of a sporting world that has gone forever.' W Magazine
There is a heartfelt, elegiac quality [to] THE WAY IT WAS ... It is only a pity he is not here to see it published

The book is an appropriate and nearly always engrossing chronicle of an illustrious career, and good to have
'his engrossing autobiography' Times

'impossible to imagine any of today's football stars ever producing a memoir half so interesting' Mail on Sunday

Especially rewarding, though, are Stan's descriptions of his technical perfectionism
A fascinating and amusing insight into the inner workings of football during its golden era
THE WAY IT WAS is a ticket to a different era, when the game wasn't saturated with money and men like Sir Stanley upheld sporting ideals
Brings vividly to life some of the greatest games of the time and features his perceptive analysis of the characters who illuminated the age
The story of one of the greatest footballers of all time ... is told in great detail and with an unexpected sense of humour. It is his vivid memory that makes THE WAY IT WAS such a good read
A gracefully crafted autobiography filled with entertaining anecdotes reflecting an age when the game was uncorrupted by greed and hooliganism
