About the Book

Hard Tackles and Dirty Baths: A Farewell to Football’s Golden Era


In his final book, written just months before his passing, George Best delivers a deeply personal tribute to the game he loved and the golden era in which he shone. Hard Tackles and Dirty Baths is more than just a history of football from 1960 to 1974—it is Best’s own farewell letter to a time before astronomical wages, television deals, and corporate sponsorships changed the sport forever.


Through the lens of his own experiences, Best revisits the triumphs and heartbreaks of a generation of legends—Jimmy Greaves, Bobby Moore, Denis Law, Bobby Charlton, Peter Osgood, and more—bringing to life an age when football was raw, passionate, and gloriously unpredictable. From the breaking of the maximum wage to the dawn of million-pound transfers, this is an insider’s account of football’s transformation, told with the wit, honesty, and brilliance of one of its most iconic players.
