Book Description
Those Forest Men is a different kind of football book. It is a personal account of someone growing up in a house populated by football players, a sport which the author never really enjoyed. It is the story of a man who ignored his local team's rise from Division 2 obscurity to twice champions of Europe. It uses a variety of texts, authors and genres to produce some of the stories of the outstanding contributions that Those Forest Men have made to the history of Nottingham Forest Football Club. It is a book with Forest fans at its heart and a heart for Forest fans. They are the only fans in the world who once had every dream come true and then went back to living one long slow nightmare. Some of the Forest men written about here once became the greatest team in the world. Above all else, it is a celebration of all those men and women that made 'Nottingham Forest, Nottingham Forest FC, by far the greatest team that you'll ever see.'

The Forest People
Author: Colin Turnbull
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1473524172
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
The Forest People is an astonishingly intimate and life-enhancing account of a hunter-gatherer tribe living in harmony with nature -- and an all-time classic of anthropology. For three years, Colin Turnbull lived with an isolated group of Pygmies deep in the forest of the African Congo, experiencing their daily life first-hand. He attended their hunting parties and initiation ceremonies, witnessed their music and their rituals, observed their quarrels and love affairs. He documented them as an anthropologist but was accepted among them as a friend. A ground-breaking work in its time, The Forest People made him one of the most famous intellectuals of the 1960s and 1970s. It remains a transporting account of an earthly paradise and of a legendary and fascinating people. With a new foreword by Horatio Clare.
