Are you a family member or an ancestor in one of the 100's of pictures?
There are more than 240 excellent photos in this book that tell the narrative of Crewe Alexandra Football Club. This amazing picture collection has cartoons, newspaper articles, player portraits, team groupings, action photos, and programme covers in addition to an introduction by Dario Gradi.The book begins with Alex's narrative in 1877 and chronicles the club's growth from that point on to the Football League's admission, several seasons of promotion and relegation, and the play-off final in 1997, which saw them achieve previously unheard-of heights. There are several legendary FA Cup runs highlighted, along with Tottenham Hotspur's dismal 2–13 thrashing in 1960.There are a lot of the club's heroes from the past and present, like Dario Gradi, Stan Bowles, Tommy Lowry, and Bert Swindells.This book, which was put together by the club's official historian and ardent supporter, Harold Finch, offers a distinctive perspective on Crewe Alexandrz's past by chronicling the club's years of decline and eventual rebirth. While younger supporters might identify the roots of the club's relatively recent rise in stature, older followers can reflect nostalgically on the difficult times.
