Memórias de um craque

About this book

Posthumous reprint in book form of thirty humorous autobiographical sketches about soccer in the 40's of the 20th century, by portuguese writer, poet and journalist Fernando Assis Pacheco. They were originally published in 1972 as a series of columns in the Lisbon sports paper 'Record'. The book's title, in which the author refers to himself as being a soccer-crack is expressive of the ironical tone of the book.
