Arsne Wenger is leaving Arsenal at the end of the 2018 season. The Wenger Revolution is a celebration of his years with the club. In September 1996 a Frenchman, so little known in English football that fans asked Arsne Who, walked into Arsenal. In the subsequent twenty plus years as manager he transformed the club. A total renovation of the training, stadium, style, economics of the team and the attraction of a global audience has taken place under Wengers instruction. This fascinating era is chronicled from the very beginning with distinctive photographs taken from inside the inner sanctum of the club by official Arsenal photographer Stuart MacFarlane, who has had privileged access for many years. Award winning journalist Amy Lawrence introduces each section to set the scene. This captivating collection of images is captioned with personal anecdotes from Arsne Wenger himself as he reminisces about the significant moments and people that have defined his time at the club.
Takes the reader into the heart of the club in so many ways, capturing the moments of joy on the field and off but also the inner sanctums of Highbury, the Emirates and the London Colney training ground. * Backpass *
