Soulful and great value

Survival of the Fattest 5: An Alternative Review of the '98-99 Football Season, (Red Card, 1999)

This handsome volume is a massive 454 pages, it's smartly produced, and its pages give off a lovely 'new book' smell. SOTF5 is the fifth annual compilation of fanzine editors' season reviews; and as you'd expect the overall effect is wholesome and appealing. This book is heart and soul: Wrexham's season is reviewed by RP (pp.240-3) and TSG (pp.353-6).
