Review

The Glory of the Green is that rare beast among Celtic publications in that it is a book that has been officially endorsed by the club.

Its concept is simple but effective and what it offers to the reader is a comprehensive lowdown on all those trophies which have a permanent home at Celtic Park. This A4 sized book is illustrated throughout with photographs of the often wonderful and sometimes weird pieces of silverware to grace the trophy cabinets within Paradise.

The European Cup naturally takes pride of place with famous trophies like the Coronation Cup and the St Mungo Cup also among the highlights.

But some of the most interesting reading can be found in the stories behind some of the more obscure mementos housed at Parkhead.

Price of £18.95 for the time was quite a fortune.
