The Wembley Wizards of 1966Following on from Derek Niven’s genealogical histories in his Pride Series of footballing greats, Pride of the Three Lions turns its attention to the achievements of the England team who won the FIFA World Cup at Wembley in 1966.It tells their stories from the viewpoint of the unsung people who made them, journeying through periods of profound social changes, poverty, World Wars, and the Great Depression.These tales of family history help to crystallize what shaped these young Englishmen into a team that especially wanted to beat their arch-rivals, West Germany, on that sunny afternoon on 30 July 1966 at Wembley Stadium.
