Description:
“Sportowe sprawy i sprawki” is a collection of witty columns, anecdotes, and memoirs by Stanisław Mielecha —a legendary soccer player, Polish national team member, and the man who gave Warsaw’s Legia its name. With an extraordinary sense of humor and eloquence, the author describes the behind-the-scenes world of pre-war soccer fields, the birth of a passion for sports in Poland, and the colorful lives of the activists and players of that era. This is not only a must-read for fans but also an invaluable source of knowledge about the culture of the Second Polish Republic.
It also includes footnotes.
