Praise for Swansea City's Greatest Games:

"Selecting 50 great games from 100 years of history is no mean feat! However Chris Carra has come pretty close to the list of games that all of us Swansea City fans would choose. There can be few clubs with a more colourful history than the Swans and this book records some of the club's greatest moments on the pitch. This wonderful trip down Swansea City's memory lane is essential reading for the Jack Army, of all ages and generations!"

- Kevin Johns, Swansea City club chaplain

"From the rainy nights on the North Bank, to the epic cup-raising glory days at Wembley, this fascinating, well-researched and highly entertaining journey through 50 of Swansea City's finest games is a magnificent read for all members of the Jack Army. If you follow the Swans, you MUST own this book!"

- Mark Rees, South Wales Evening Post
