Beschreibung
Zdeněk Zikmund has managed to prepare two extraordinary monographs mapping the history of the most popular sport under totalitarian oversight. The author connects well-known and lesser-known facts and results with specific stories, placing events in context alongside the basic historical framework. Many readers can thus become more familiar with the background of previously dry reports, which often concerned the families of football players or their close surroundings. The individual chapters follow the fates of clubs, players, and officials, bringing closer the period realities, curiosities, and oddities even on a regional scale, while also noting the political backstage and rumors. The thorough factual appendix and rich photographic accompaniment in the form of period documentary photographs in both books are also very valuable.
