Where John Williams and Stephen Hopkins score most freely, being profoundly committed fans as well as lucid writers, is in taking us back to Turkey to try to make sense of that ridiculous night on which Milan gave one of the finest performances in a European final for years. But you do not have to be a Liverpool fan to enjoy this book. Williams and Hopkins have produced an admirably thoughtful work in which every issue is considered. The Sunday Telegraph 20050821 The Miracle of Istanbul retraces all the action from that great night and also examines the performances that led up to the finale. Thorough and concise to the last, it's a book anyone with more than a passing interest in Liverpool FC has to own. Scotland on Sunday 20050904 'It has it all: the players, the manager, the fans. It's all here! Sport First 20050909 'Whether you are interested in Jack the Ripper or not, this is an excellent chronicle of life in Dundee during the late 1880s...The case of William Bury makes fascinating reading'. -- Susan Bell Aberdeen Press & Journal 20050924 'This is an abridged history of the club since Bill Shankly and the story of a whole topsy-turvy season, as well as the tale of one improbable victory'. Observer Sport Monthly
