White Storm: 100 Years of Real Madrid (Mainstream Sport) ReviewI was really looking forward to Phil Ball's take on the greatest soccer club team in the world after Morbo--his brilliant history of Spanish soccer--but this was a tad disappointing. It's a good book, for sure, but I didn't get the relevance of references to how each Real Madrid great rated on the 100th anniversary fan poll. I also thought there'd be more than a little over 200 pages. I understand brevity but this book deserved about 200 more pages.
Whereas Barca--A People's Passion by Jimmy Burns rocked. This history of their great rivals fell a bit flat despite a lot of good info in here. It just needed more fleshing out to get a greater feel for each era in the club's history.White Storm: 100 Years of Real Madrid (Mainstream Sport) OverviewWithin the trophy room at the Bernabeu, the spoils of a century's achievements provide indisputable evidence of football's conquistadores rubbing the world's noses in the dirt. They include29 league titles,9 European Cups,17 Spanish Cups,2 UEFA Cups, and3 World Club Championship titles. The story of Real Madrid is, however, much more than the mere sum of its achievements. The club has always attracted the biggest names in the game, and for every Figo, Zidane, Ronaldo, or Beckham, there is a legend from the past. White Storm charts the history of the club from its foundations to the golden period of Di Stefano and Puskas, through the "hippy years," to the modern embodiment of Madridismo. It ends with an analysis of the Beckham impact, the disintegration of the Florentino Perez regime, and a look at what the future might hold for the world's most famous club.
