Trailing George Best: The Manchester Haunts of United's Greatest takes a forensic look back at the locations in and around Manchester where George Best worked, rested, partied and played during the Swinging 60s and the dubiously stylish 70s. Despite the questionable fashions, it was the best of times. George Best lived in the city for nearly 15 years and this book chronicles, with numerous images, the places where he lived, the avenues and alleyways he explored, the boutiques he managed, the nightclubs he both frequented and helped to run, and of course the football grounds where he ran amok. Having tracked down the people who knew George best during this period - people who lived with Best, the pals he hung out with, colleagues who worked with him, his business partners and personal managers - lifelong Manchester United supporters Stuart Bolton and Paul Collier unearth the stories that other writers could not reach.
Paul Collier is the author of three books: Stairway 13: The Story of the 1971 Ibrox Disaster; Remember Me for My Football: The Complete Playing Career of George Best; and Red Devils in Dark Suits. Paul also worked with George Best on two of his later autobiographies. Stuart Bolton is a regular contributor to Late Tackle football magazine, and also writes a monthly column on local history for What's On Stockport.
