"""Part travelogue, part memoir... an insight into the way football is played and watched in countries and leagues that we in Britain do not always pay much attention to... told in an engaging and charming style. It’s not too hard to imagine that you are being regaled over a chilled bottle (or three) of rosé, the Med sparkling in the low evening sun in the background."" * Times Literary Supplement *"

Author Information

Alex Wade's first book, Wrecking Machine, was a Sunday Times Sports Book of the Week. Wade went on to write two acclaimed books on surfing, and a novel, Flack's Last Shift. In A Season on the Med he returns to his first love, football, but he doesn't just chronicle his experience of going to games along the French and Italian Rivieras. Instead, Wade, a lawyer as well as a writer and journalist, probes the nature and meaning of hero-worship.
