Fußballweltmeisterschaft 1930 Uruguay. World Cup Championships 1930 in Uruguay (GERMAN) 75 years ago the first World Cup Championships took place, and with it, a new tournament was born that revolutionised the World of football. Here you find the first publication World-wide that deals with this unique historical event from that summer of 1930. How did it come into being? Why in the World should the small nation of Uruguay be the host? What were the problems along the way? In many years of research the well known authors Stahl and Havekost found out the real meaning of the World Cup for the 13 participating nations, and how the European Teams had to take a long sea passage to get to South America because commercial aviation was practically non-existent. Not just interesting, background information can be found, the book does concentrate on sport, giving, in the usual manner, details of all the matches, all the statistics and interesting details behind the scenes lavishly trimmed with exciting photos, plus fact and figures making the German easy to follow, a really fascinating chronic in football history. Hardback, size 21x30 cm. 100 b/w photos 128 pages (GERMAN)
