Book Reviews of Once in a Lifetime: The Incredible Story of the New York Cosmos
Book Review: New York Was Never the Same Again
Summary: 4 Stars
If you like football, clubbing, New York, tales of Pele, Beckenbauer etc this is the book for you. Author Gavin Newsham has done a great job of recreating those few years in the 1970s when America finally realised what football was all about; and when the cream of European and South American football, imported by the Cosmos, realised what New York was all about.
It's a great read.
