A truly excellent portrayal of those who have been brave and indeed talented enough to have represented two of the most illustrious football clubs in the world, filled with in-depth details, wit and the beautiful game at the forefront. Despite our differences - often down to nothing more than our parents' allegiances - there can be no denying the shared history between the powerhouses of the English game and albeit often a fractious rivalry, our families, friends and lives remain intertwined and with that, so do many of our favourite footballing stories. Often referred to as the 'friendly derby' in years gone by, harrowing events such as the Hillsborough disaster have undoubtedly united the two clubs at the most pivotal of times, and its that unison, coupled with the in-view proximity that makes the passage from Liverpool to Everton or vice-versa all the more fascinating. This book offers a wonderful insight into the history and the journey of those who have been brave enough to cross Stanley Park to represent the 'enemy' in blue or red. From the first Scouser John Whitehead to do the short trip across the park, to a flamboyantly haired Mozambique-born Abel Xavier, this is a must-read for those wanting to discover more about what is a rivalry steeped in history and the players who have experienced both football clubs from within. - - Redmen TV.
