Well-know Killie author David Ross noticed the book thread on the
Kickback forum and to put a few minds a rest sent us the following
letter of recommendation...
| Baz,
I saw a piece about Rob Hadgraft's book on
your site with someone saying he didn't recognise the name and
wondering if it was a cut-and-paste job. I think I can put your
poster's worries to rest.
I was contacted by Rob Hadgraft via
Allan Auld and have been conducting correspondence with him since
then. He's a freelance journalist based in Essex who has written a
number of football books and he's done his homework for this one,
conducting a number of interviews with players and fans. He's well
aware of other publications by myself, Richard Cairns, John
Livingston and Gordon Allison.
Desert Island Books are publishing
titles on sides which have won the title once and once only. I
bought the one on Motherwell and it's a great read - far superior to
the recent Motherwell history.
Based on both the publisher and the
author's track record I'd have no hesitation in recommending it to
Killie fans as a great memento of a marvellous time. I'm expecting a
copy of the text any day now which I've agreed to check for factual
errors.
Regards
David Ross |
We are also being sent a copy and will do a full review after
we've read it. Watch out also for David's new book which is due out in
May!
