Once in a Lifetime The Incredible Story of

"Once in a Lifetime is much more than the story of a soccer team. It is a vivid evocation of the Cosmos at the height of their power in 1977, and the razzmatazz and conspicuous consumption that surrounded them. It is a story that includes millionaires, rock stars, groupies, alcoholic excess, and knockdown fistfights. It also features some of the greatest stars who ever played the game of soccer."--BOOK JACKET.

Gavin Newsham is the associate editor of the Golf Punk magazine.
