Summary

Published in association with Leeds United to coincide with the club's centenary celebrations.

100 Years of Leeds United tells the story of a one-club city and its unique relationship with its football team. Since its foundation in 1919, Leeds United Football Club has seen more ups and downs than most, rising to global fame through an inimitable and uncompromising style in the 70s, clinching the last Division One title prior to the Premier League's inauguration in 1992, before a spectacular fall from grace at the start of the 21st century.

United remains one of the best supported - and most divisive - clubs in football, with supporters’ clubs dotted across the globe.

In 100 Years of Leeds United, Chapman delves deep into the archives to discover the lesser-known episodes, providing fresh context to the folkloric tales that have shaped the club we know today, painting the definitive picture of the West Yorkshire giants.

If you are a Leeds fan this is a fascinating look into the history of the club you love.

I have been a fan all my life (nearly 40 years) and I had little appreciation for what happened before The glory years of Don Revie our the period after him up until I was born. Finding out was thrilling & left me feeling a renewed nostalgia and pride for my club

Good for the Leeds Fan

Great history of the club, and insight into the players and managers.

Hopefully they can add a chapter for the 101st and 102nd year to cover the Premiership return.

Wonderful laying out of the history well told

Chapman has nailed expanding and explaining a lot of what it is to be Leeds. The ups and downs and the founding of where it all comes from. Love this.

Superb

This shone so much light on a Club I thought I knew after supporting for 30 years! Loved the early chapters and re-lived the last 30 years again, though gutted not hear a synopsis of the Bielsa promotion season! Must read/listen for any Leeds fan
