Beschreibung

From the slums of Victorian Glasgow to the electric roar of modern-day Celtic Park, Paradise Found chronicles the extraordinary journey of Celtic Football Club-a team forged in charity, sustained by passion, and driven by an unbreakable bond with its community. Founded in 1887 by Brother Walfrid to feed the hungry, Celtic has grown into a global phenomenon, transcending sport to become a symbol of resilience, inclusivity, and hope.

This meticulously researched volume traces the club's highs and lows: the glory of the Lisbon Lions' 1967 European triumph, the heartbreak of the Ten-in-a-Row quest, and the modern revival under visionaries like Ange Postecoglou. Beyond the pitch, explore Celtic's cultural imprint-its anthems, activism, and unwavering commitment to social justice. With rare insights into legends like Jock Stein, Henrik Larsson, and the trailblazing Celtic Women's Team, Paradise Found is more than a football history. It is a testament to how a club's soul can inspire generations.
