About this listen
Arsenal Football Club is more than a name — it is a tradition, a passion, and a story that stretches across generations. From its humble beginnings in Woolwich in 1886, formed by a group of munitions workers, Arsenal grew into one of the most iconic football clubs in the world.
This book takes listeners on a journey through the highs and lows of Arsenal’s history:
- The move to Highbury and the creation of a footballing identity.
- The glory years under Herbert Chapman, with innovations that changed the game forever.
- The triumphs of the 1970s and George Graham’s famous defence.
- The Wenger revolution, bringing breathtaking football, the Invincibles, and global recognition.
- The transition to the Emirates era and the rise of a new generation under Mikel Arteta.
Alongside the triumphs, Arsenal has faced struggles, setbacks, and near collapses — yet its spirit has always endured. The book captures the drama, the characters, and the culture that shaped the Gunners, from legends like Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp to modern heroes leading the club into a new era.
Richly told and deeply rooted in history, The History of Arsenal celebrates not just the trophies, but the identity of a club that embodies North London pride and worldwide admiration.
For lifelong fans and curious listeners alike, this is more than football history — it is the story of Arsenal
