Hardback. Etat : New. Eddie Hapgood, Footballer is the extraordinary story of a young unknown from Bristol who became Arsenal and England captain and a national hero, in the dark days of the 1930s. His impact is so enduring that when the millennium dawned, the public voted him one of the greatest sportsmen of the century. That glorious legacy was painfully achieved. Hapgood considered football an art and played it joyously as part of a team, but he struggled when politics, class and money threatened to undermine him and corrupt football. By the late 1930s, the ugly shadows of fascism, Nazism and looming war were bearing down on the beautiful game. Hapgood found himself in a public fight for justice and respect, while behind the scenes he protected his family with dedication, love and humour. In this gripping memoir, his daughter Lynne Hapgood pulls together the various threads - success, celebrity, tragedy and vindication - to reveal the real Eddie Hapgood. She examines the nature of sporting greatness and its impact on fans and family.…

Hardback. Etat : Fine. Eddie Hapgood Footballer ? From Beyond the Touchline (2022) by Lynne Hapgood ? Condition: Fine (Crappy Old Books) When your captain is literally called Hapgood, you know the football gods were doing a bit of foreshadowing. Eddie Hapgood Footballer ? From Beyond the Touchline (Pitch Publishing, 2022, ISBN: 9781801500494) is the spirited, richly researched biography penned by Lynne Hapgood about her father, the legendary Arsenal and England left-back. Eddie wasn?t just a player; he was the captain who marshalled England through the 1930s with a mixture of grit, elegance, and a haircut so sharp it could have split the leather casing of a ball. This is not your run-of-the-mill footballer tale padded out with match stats and sepia photos of men in knee-length shorts (though you get a bit of that too). Instead, it?s family history, social history, and football history braided into one?told with affection, humour, and an occasional ghostly nudge ?from beyond the touchline.? The book manages to paint Eddie as both the national hero and the human being who had to navigate fame, family, and the minor inconvenience of a world war. Now, about the copy itself: sold by the delightfully honest Crappy Old Books , but surprise! This one?s in Fine condition. That means no broken spines, no dog-eared penalty corners, no dubious pub-stained fingerprints from someone reliving the Highbury roar. It looks as if Eddie himself has been standing guard over it, arms folded, keeping it spick-and-span with that stern-but-fair captain?s gaze. For once, a book that doesn?t look like it?s been through extra time and a muddy replay. If you like your football biographies with heart, history, and the occasional glimpse of cosmic banter (because let?s face it, ?from beyond the touchline? has a nice spectral ring to it), this is the volume for you. Perfect for Arsenal devotees, England nostalgists, or anyone who enjoys tales where the beautiful game meets beautifully told family memoir. In short: Fine condition, fine story, fine player. Which means, for once, Crappy Old Books is selling something that isn?t actually that crappy at all.…

Paperback. Etat : New. Margins of Desire' turns the critical spotlight on the London suburbs by showing how the expanding city created new literary locations, genres and themes between 1880 and 1925. Drawing on a wide range of writings, the book considers not only the fiction that identified the suburbs as significant but also the fiction that suburban dwellers, particularly women, wrote and read for themselves. Pervasive suburban themes included the loss of the rural, the rejection of the urban, the feminisation of culture and changing class identities. By engaging with modernity as represented by the suburbs, such writing was subversive of literary tradition and value, and signalled a shift towards the idea of the ordinary, the accessible and the harmonious. The suburbanisation of the literary imagination is addressed through studies of suburban and anti-suburban utopias by writers such as William Morris, E.M. Forster, Jerome K. Jerome and Arthur Conan Doyle; the imaginative terrain created by women writers in magazine and popular fiction, and representation of suburban realities from George Gissing's attacks on mediocrity to G.K. Chesterton's celebration of the ordinary. Lynne Hapgood's lively approach opens up a counter-culture to modernist metropolitanism and argues for a more inclusive understanding of the fiction of the period.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Welcome to Margins of Desire: The Suburbs in Fiction and Culture 1880?1925 (2005) by Lynne Hapgood ? a book that bravely asks the question nobody says out loud at dinner parties: what if the most interesting drama isn?t downtown, but behind a net curtain? Published by Manchester University Press , this is proper academic non-fiction with a clear mission: to take the suburbs seriously, not as a punchline, but as a cultural invention loaded with anxieties, aspirations, and the unsettling power of a well-kept hedge. This isn?t the suburbs as you see them in estate-agent photos (?family-friendly?, ?convenient transport links?, ?ample off-street parking?). This is the suburbs as a story machine ? a place where modernity gets tested, identities get rehearsed, and desire has to squeeze itself into polite shapes. Between 1880 and 1925, suburbia becomes a space that promises safety and respectability while quietly generating the very tensions it claims to solve: class mobility, gender roles, privacy, consumption, propriety, boredom, ambition, and the fear that you might become? comfortable. Hapgood digs into how suburban life shows up in fiction and wider culture, where it often carries a weird double charge: it?s meant to be the ?nice? option, yet it?s also portrayed as suspiciously performative. The street is orderly, the interiors are curated, the neighbours are watching, and the self you present to the world is always one awkward moment away from being revealed as an act. If you?ve ever felt that the suburbs are simultaneously soothing and faintly uncanny ? congratulations, this book is basically your diagnosis, with footnotes. Expect discussions of suburban space as symbolism, of domesticity as social theatre, and of the cultural forces that created the suburb as a modern ideal and a modern worry. It?s the kind of study that makes you see a semi-detached house and think, ah yes, a micro-stage for late Victorian anxieties and early twentieth-century reinvention. Which is not a normal thought, but it?s a better one. Condition: Good , meaning it?s sturdy and readable ? a used academic title with enough life left to sit on your desk looking intelligent, or to be smugly displayed on a shelf as proof that you don?t just live near the suburbs, you can also theorise them. There may be mild signs of handling, but nothing that will stop it doing its main job: making you look at ordinary streets and realise they were never culturally neutral. Perfect for readers who like: literary and cultural studies with a sharp eye, the history of everyday spaces, early modern Britain?s social nervous system, and the delicious realisation that ?quiet? places are often where the loudest meanings hide. Sold by Crappy Old Books , naturally ? because where else would a serious, slightly sinister study of suburban desire end up, if not somewhere wonderfully unglamorous, waiting for the next curious mind to discover that the margins are where the action is.…
