Description
Duncan Edwards: The Greatest A tragic heroism story that shines a light on one of football's greatest players. Born in Dudley and rising to prominence at Manchester United, Edwards achieved remarkable success in just five years, helping the team win two league championships and reach the semi-finals of the European Cup. Edwards was a versatile player who could play any position and still be the best on the pitch. He made his England debut at 18 years and 183 days old, becoming the country's youngest international since the Second World War. His career was cut short after he lost his life following the Munich Air Disaster in 1958. Author James Leighton tells a poignant story of Edwards' life and achievements, making for a page-turning biography that offers a fresh perspective on football's past.
