My Championship Year

Fine condition. Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 2009. First UK edition-first printing(10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1). Large format pictorial hardback(a couple of scratches and small dent on the cover) in fine condition, no Dj as issued. Illustrated with many full colour photographs. The book is new with two small creases and nicks on the edges of the pages. 224pp including Foreword by Ross Brawn(includes his printed signature). First edition. Heavy book. Book Description: On 4 December 2008, just a few months before the new season was due to start, the Honda Racing F1 team, which Jenson Button had been driving for since 2006, pulled the plug on their involvement in Formula One. The media at the time reported that it was likely that the factory would be forced to shut, and it was unlikely that Jenson would be able to secure a drive at a top team at this late stage. Yet incredibly, in October 2009, Jenson Button was crowned World Champion, and the new team that had risen from the ashes of the HondaORacing F1 teamO- Brawn GP - secured the constructors' championship in their first season, a feat never before achieved. If this were a movie script you wouldn't believe it possible, so how did it happen? MY CHAMPIONSHIP YEAR tells Jenson's incredible story of the 2009 season, from being written off pre-season to winning six of the first seven races, and finally securing the championship in brilliant style at the Brazilian Grand Prix. Jenson's personal commentary on the races is combined with notes on strategy, on-board radio exchanges, quotes from the team and even text messages to recreate the atmosphere of each race weekend. With a foreword by Ross Brawn, it is a fascinating account of an extraordinary grand prix year, and shows just what it takes to become world champion. n nAbout the Author nJenson Button was born on 19 January 1980 in Frome, Somerset, and made his Grand Prix debut at the age of 20. In 2009, in his tenth season and driving for the newly-formed Brawn GP team, he became the Formula 1 world champion after a stunning drive in the Brazilian Grand Prix. Fine/No Dj Cover As Issued.

My Manchester United Years

Fine condition. Headline Book Publishing, 2007. First edition-7th printing. Grey hardback(Bobby Charlton's signature in gilt lettering on the front cover, gilt lettering to the spine, two small nicks on the cover) with Dj(small nicks, scratches and crease on the Dj cover), both in fine condition. Illustrated with full colour, b/w photos.

Price un-clipped. Product Description: Bobby Charlton is Manchester United through and through. He was a member of the original Busby Babes and has devoted his career to the club, playing in 754 games over 17 years. During that period he won everything the game had to offer, played alongside some of the greats such as Best and Law, suffered devastating defeats and was involved in one of the greatest football tragedies of all time. Here, for the very first time, he tells the story of those United years. With his beloved Reds he tasted FA Cup victory in the emotional final of 1963, won three first division championships and in 1968 he reached the pinnacle of club success, winning the European Cup. Inevitably, such highs are balanced with no less dramatic lows, such as the 1957 European Cup semi-final, the highly charged 1958 FA Cup loss which followed only weeks after the horrors of the Munich Air disaster, and the 1969 European Cup defeat by Milan. He is one of the true gentlemen of football and the legacy that Bobby Charlton gives to United is beyond compare. Fine/Fine. ISBN: 9780755316199
