Stephen BrandtBoca Juniors: A History and Appreciation of Buenos Aires' Most Successful Futbol Team

Really poor content

It is hard to describe how terrible this "book" is. Would it have been so hard to hire an editor? There are so many spelling and grammar mistakes it is hard to choose a favorite, but I would have to say spelling a team's name differently twice in the same paragraph stands out. An editor might have also encouraged less hackneyed phrases and more research. All of the citations are to websites, which leads me to believe the "author" simply cut and pasted from a few websites to create this monstrosity. Would it have been so hard to read up on Argentinian history? We don't ask for too much but could you have tried just a little? I am guessing that the copy and paster who tried to pass off this stain on the game as a history of an important rivalry is some kind of blogger who has never been supervised or guided and has no idea how to report, research, distill, or write a coherent sentence. THIS BOOK IS DANGEROUSLY BAD.

Really grateful to find a work in English dedicated to such an important team to the history of the sport. A quick digestible read that does not neglect historical details is hard to find. This book is important for the popularity of the sport in the americas. And it looks really good on a coffee table
