Bridge Studio Publishing

<p>Cissie Charlton had as much passion for and knowledge about the game of football as any man. She had two sons, Bobby and Jack, who became soccer icons of their age and even in her later years with failing health she still had the drive to pass on her love of the sport to youngsters in her home town.In her autobiography, Cissie Charlton tells of her hard life as a pitman's daughter and then as a miner's wife in Ashington, Northumberland, in the period between the wars; of her battle against breast cancer; of the tragedy of the Munich air crash which Bobby was to survive and of her joy in watching Jack and Bobby play football together for England - and win. And through all of this, her undoubted good humour and zest for life shines through.</p>
