Brian Morton's football skills were a perfect blend of speed, dexterity, and the brain of a football professor. Only 5 ft 4 inches, he had a physical balance that was almost balletic. This book tells the story of his legendary kinsman, a story in which personal reminiscence, sporting legend, and cultural history all coincide in one tiny frame.
