Description
George Best is considered the greatest footballer of our time.
No
other imposed himself so completely on to the romantic imagination. No other was
so emblematic of the era during which he flourished. And no other will ever be
as memorable as George Best.
On the field Best's skills were sublime and
almost other-worldly. Off it, he had a magnetic appeal. He was treated like a
pop icon and a pin-up; a fashion-model and a sex-symbol. Every man envied him
and every woman adored him.
To mark the 50th anniversary of his debut
for Manchester United, Duncan Hamilton examines Best's crowded life and
premature death. But most importantly, Hamilton presents Best at his glorious
peak - the precocious goals, the labyrinthine runs, the poise and balletic
balance and the body swerves.
This is George Best: footballing immortal.
