Description: Kenny Dalglish's relationship with Liverpool Football Club is one of the great love stories of sport. From the moment he first set foot in the Anfield dressing room, Dalglish felt a passion for Liverpool stir within him. After joining from Celtic in 1977, the supremely gifted striker was embraced by Liverpool fans, for the goals and the glory, and most especially for the three European Cups. The Kop's adoration of King Kenny has never ebbed. Liverpool fans have never forgotten how Dalglish held the club together through two tragedies, the first at the Heysel stadium in Brussels in 1985 and then at Hillsborough in 1989. Both disasters are explored in emotional detail in My Liverpool Home. For the sake of his health and his family, Dalglish eventually resigned and Liverpool have not won the title since. However, in his heart he never really left and he has now returned, playing a pivotal role, following the departure of Roy Hodgson, in this turbulent period in the club's history. My Liverpool Home is the story of Dalglish's epic love affair with Liverpool, tracing the highs and lows, the characters, the laughter, the tears, and the many triumphs.

Review: What can you say about a true legend!. Indoctrinated by my three sons into a compassion for Liverpool Football club it seems inevitable that I could not fail to ignore the significance of Kenny Dalglish as a major part of that club's history. As with other reviewers I found the sincerity of his devotion to Liverpool FC impossible to ignore albeit balanced by his expression of the support the club has given both himself and his family. Maybe the tragedies of Hillsborough and Heysel produced the basis from which mutual devotion is magnified, whatever the answer I for one cannot but admire the man, his values, his honesty in a time when each Saturday we witness degrees of blatant cheating and pursuance of self interest. If I could criticise the book in any way it would be for it's lack of illustrations and that I found it a little lacking in expression towards the end but otherwise a very enjoyable read about one of sports most significant characters.My Liverpool Home
