Chapman was the first, and arguably the greatest, of the 'modern' managers during the 1920s and 30s, when he achieved huge success with first, Huddersfield Town and then, Arsenal.

First Edition. Small 8vo. xi + 178pp. Frontispiece. In the original dust-wrapper, which is very lightly rubbed to edges but otherwise in very good condition.
