162pp. Illustrated. Neat, clean, bright and tight. Laminated, illustrated soft covers (slight shelfwear around upper leading corner). In November 1914, Hearts led the Scottish First Division, in the midst of debate around the morality of continuing professional football during the First World War and pressure for footballers to join up. This volume tells the story of Hearts players and supporters who served their country during the Great War and those who were left behind in Edinburgh.
