A definitive photojournal of soccer culture in the modern era! Peter Robinson is considered one of the great soccer photographers of our time, and for over 30 years he has developed a reporting style that’s unique, informed, and questioning. For that reason, he has enjoyed unprecedented access to the game’s most legendary figures and events—even during private moments in the dressing room and at home. Robinson’s idiosyncratic perspective—and thrilling images of rawness and honesty—are showcased in eight chapters, each focusing on a distinctive element of the sport. Among the memorable pictures: a touching memorial to Colombian player Andrés Escobar, murdered after he accidentally scored a goal against his own team; the VIP area at the 1994 World Cup Final in Los Angeles; and tense Manchester United fans watching a crucial, final match.

Photographer Peter Robinson trained at Leicester College of Art and The Royal College of Art, and began his professional career in 1965. After working on The Football League magazine he was invited by Sir Stanley Rous on behalf of FIFA to photograph the Mexico '70 World Cup. Over a period of 35 years, Robinson has covered 9 World Cups, the English and Scottish leagues, the FA Cup, the League Cup, and the European Cup/Champions League. He has run his own photographic agency, and has mounted major exhibitions of his work. Author Will Hoon studied Design History at the Royal College of Art, where he also embarked on the first academic appraisal of the material culture of English professional football. Elements of this ground-breaking study were later used the V&A exhibition 'Streetstyles' and BBC North's 'Kicking and Screaming: A History of English Football'.
