Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. "Trautmann: The Biography" is the complete story, from his early life in Bremen where he was born and raised in the seething political climate of the 1920s, to his often hilarious internment as prisoner of war Camp 50, until his signing by Manchester City in 1949. This study of Trautmann's life is a story of controversy, prejudice and passion that will fascinate readers. This is an extremely compelling read that reveals the interesting life of one of the greatest goalkeepers ever seen. In April 1945 a group of bedraggled, weary German prisoners of war landed at Tilbury after being captured during the last days of the war. They were dispersed to prison camps throughout England, and one of their number, a confused 22-year-old veteran of some of the harshest conditions and hardest battles experienced by the German forces, found himself in south-east Lancashire. His name was Bernhard Carl Trautmann, later to become famous as Bert.This book is the complete story, from his early life in Bremen where he was born and raised in the seething political climate of the 1920s, his involvement with the Hitler Youth movement and extraordinary war experiences, to his often hilarious internment as prisoner of war Camp 50, until his signing by Manchester City in 1949 amid a barrage of controversy and prejudice. Trautmann ran the gauntlet of racial hatred to become, without doubt, one of the greatest goalkeepers ever seen. He played in two successive FA Cup Finals, 1955 and 1956, the latter year bringing him into world focus when he sustained a broken neck. Yet he continued in the game. Within weeks of that Cup Final he suffered further appalling personal tragedy, amid turmoil in his home life, as he fought to regain his fitness. The book has been updated to include details of the Trautmann Foundation and Trautmann's OBE. Presents the story of Trautmann from his early life in Bremen where he was born and raised in the seething political climate of the 1920s, to his often hilarious internment as prisoner of war Camp 50, until his signing by Manchester City in 1949.
