Geordie Armstrong On The Wing
Author : Dave Seager (@goonerdave66).
George ‘Geordie’ Armstrong was the antithesis of the modern day football star – and yet to those who knew him, played with him, or cheered him on from the terraces – he was exactly that… a bona fide Arsenal Superstar. The overwhelming warmth and affection for ‘Geordie’, felt by everyone connected with Arsenal Football Club, is encapsulated within this stunning book, which features interviews with dozens of those who were fortunate enough to have worked with a much-loved Gunners Icon, including: Arsene Wenger, Bob Wilson, Liam Brady, Dennis Bergkamp… as well as a chapter written by the fans.
Woolwich Arsenal FC: 1893-1915
The Club That Changed Football
Authors : Mark Andrews (@RoyalArsenalMRA).
Andy Kelly (@Gooner_AK).
Tony Attwood (@UntoldArsenal).
In 1892 the professional football club Royal Arsenal FC came under attack. The enemy was a coalition of the owner of the club s ground, and a small group of men who had recently lost their places on the committee that ran Royal Arsenal. The battle between the two camps raged into 1893 and saw the most outrageous acts of bribery and corruption, combined with a vicious campaign of lies and innuendo conducted in the local newspapers.
The Crowd At Woolwich Arsenal
Author : Mark Andrews (@RoyalArsenalMRA).
The Crowd at Woolwich Arsenal FC is a truly remarkable and unique volume, filling in a significant gap in our knowledge of the early days of football. This is the third publication in a series of books on Arsenal s early years, and follows the issuing of Making the Arsenal (which follows Arsenal in 1910 through the eyes of a Fleet Street journalist) and Woolwich Arsenal, the club that changed football (which charts the history from its launch in 1893, until its transmogrification into The Arsenal in 1915).

The Arsenal Shirt (@TheArsenalShirt).
This beautiful coffee table book presents the visual history of one of the most recognisable shirts in the world of football, the legendary Arsenal shirt.
Compiled using stunning photographs of match worn shirts actually donned by many of the football clubs greatest players, the book presents a stunning timeline of Arsenal’s emblematic shirt. Displaying shirts from some of the biggest Arsenal match worn shirt collections in private ownership as well as those belonging to former players and staff members’, the book brings together the rarest and most iconic Arsenal shirts ever seen and includes:
● A player shirt example from virtually every one of the home and away shirt variations worn by the Gunners over the last 50 years – from the oldest known surviving Arsenal shirt, to the first red shirt with the famous white sleeves, to Charlie George’s yellow 1971 “Double” clincher and Michael Thomas’s immortal Anfield 1989 away top.
● A player shirt from every major cup final Arsenal have ever played in, including the 2014 FA Cup final.
● Shirts worn by many of The Arsenal’s greatest players including James, Bastin, Mercer, McLintock, Brady, Sansom, Rocastle, Wright, Bergkamp, Vieira and Henry.
Author : Stewart Taylor.
It was 22nd April 1980, the eve of the European Cup-Winners’ Cup semi-final between Arsenal and Juventus in Turin and Paul Vaessen had a dream, a dream in which he came off the bench to score the winning goal. Because the dream would soon turn into a nightmare as, eight months after his exploits in northern Italy, Paul would suffer the knee injury which would eventually curtail his career at the age of twenty one. Paul was on the scrapheap.
Arsenal Book’s
I got the original list from Andy (@Gooner_AK) who got it from Brian Dawes (@Gooner48) who made it in 1999.
The original list had ISBN/ASIN numbers for every issue of the book and hardback & paperback versions but this list is for the paperback versions and only the most recent versions like “Captain of Wales By Walley Barnes” was first issued in 1953 but the latest version is 2012 which was a reprint.
Also I have only included books that were by or about Arsenal players or about Arsenal but not handbooks, annuals or fanzines. Another thing some might find annoying is I have put books that begin with ‘THE’ under ‘T’, like Tom Watt’s ‘The End’, some might hate this but I find it easier.
