This is a celebration of the most well-known football club in the world. From the early days of Newton Heath, through years of near-bankruptcy, the eras of Mangnall and Busby, tragedy at Munich, to triumph in Europe and the victorious double Double. This is a fascinating account of the drama, excitement and glory of United's most important moments.
