"Gordon Smith: Prince of Wingers" is a biographical story recounting
the life of legendary footballer Gordon Smith written by his son Tony.
One of the 'Famous Five', Gordon Smith won the league with Hibernian
on three separate occasions during an eighteen-year-long glittering
career with the club. With Heart of Midlothian he won another league
medal as well as a League Cup medal, followed by yet another
championship medal with Dundee. He represented his country on
thirty-nine separate occasions, captaining them three times. His
mesmeric skills and grace gave joy to many football fans, not only
during his time with the Leith club, but also whilst playing for Heart
of Midlothian, Dundee and Scotland. The book itself describes Gordon's
life from humble beginnings in backstreet alleys kicking stones in
place of a football to the stature of becoming one of the most
naturally gifted players in the history of British football - whilst
giving readers a unique insight into the life of this very private
man.
