The book features every player to appear for Hibernian Football Club since the war and gives a full career record and detailed statistics. Many of the more important players also have an illustration. The Edinburgh-based team have a long and proud history that includes league titles, cup successes and European competition and commensurate popularity in and around the capital as well as throughout the rest of Scotland (and Ireland). Here is just a sample of the facts about some of the players: Jim O'Rourke was only 16 when he made his Hibs debut and it came in a European tie. Keith Wright was rejected by the club as a schoolboy, he later joined at a cost of GBP500,000. Hibs goalkeeper Jim Herriot saw his name used by the author of a series of world-famous vet books set in Yorkshire. Ronnie Simpson made his league debut as a 14 year old and his Scotland debut as a 36 year old.
