I notice a number of people complain about the book. I would speak in its defence. For anyone not quite familiar with the MLS and its roots this work is quite unparalleled. I learn a lot, it explained much and nowhere was it dry. It has a rather good mix of boardroom and terraces perspectives. The only thing I dodn't like - but it's my problem only - were descriptions of key matches and play-off series. I was looking into overall view of development, and generally skipped in-game drama. Then again feedback from state and nationwide media, fans and owners to the results is provided, and that's exactly the part of the League's inner workings I was looking into. Overall, a very solid and quality introduction.
