The World is a Ball: The Joy, Madness and Meaning of Soccer by John Doyle

3.0

A little long winded but an entertaining travelogue that serves as a well versed history of international football tournaments. I enjoyed the 2008 euro section the most; I wish turkey was covered in more detail though we certainly deserved it.

Poor editing takes away from it however, some pretty glaring typos come to mind. I was tempted to give 2 stars but I gave john Doyle 3 for making me laugh out loud on several occasions.
