OverviewFrom dusty ports to glittering stadiums, The Beautiful Game sweeps readers through a century of Brazilian football and its unmatched impact on global sport and culture. With irresistible storytelling and vivid detail, the book reveals how a country of dazzling contrasts transformed an imported pastime into a living art form called futebol-arte. We meet barefoot street prodigies, legendary icons like Pelé, Marta, and Garrincha, tactical masterminds, carnival drummers, and digital-era freestylers. Through unforgettable World Cup triumphs, soul-crushing defeats, political battles, and cultural revolutions, Brazil's story becomes football's story. Blending history, sociology, music, and modern innovation, The Beautiful Game shows why Brazil remains the heartbeat of the world's favorite sport-and why the ball, like the dream, never stops rolling.
