Fergie Rises

‘It might be a familiar story – of course it is – but this book brings it alive with fresh interviews, rich in detail and anecdote. It is a brilliant read. A must for all Dandies'

-- Graham Spiers * The Times *

'The finest Fergie book of them all. It takes you to the heart of the magnificent absurdity of Aberdeen being kings of Europe'

-- Tom English * BBC Sport *

'The glut of books on Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United Revolution is exactly why this one is so interesting. A neat idea by an author whose account is superbly written'

* The Scotsman 'Best Scottish sports reads' *

'This is a book that takes the evidence from a series of witnesses to burgeoning genius. The testimonies are stunning, insightful, sometimes bitter, mostly awed and regularly funny'

* The Herald *

'Having interviewed many of those under Fergie’s Pittodrie stewardship, he brings much fresh insight into a period covered too briefly in his autobiography'

* FourFourTwo *

'The most fascinating part of Alex Ferguson’s career is his eight years taking Aberdeen from no-hopers to beating Real Madrid in a European Final. All the greatest stories have a beginning and this is it'

* Shortlist *

'An excellent new tome'

-- Stephen McGowan * Scottish Daily Mail *

'A masterful re-telling of how Ferguson was "made" at Aberdeen'

-- Alan Pattullo * The Scotsman *

'It is Grant's own passion that permeates and defines Fergie Rises and makes it the book that all of us would have loved to have written'

-- David Innes * Aberdeen Voice *

'Grant has painted a vivid tableau of a bygone age on a giant-sized canvas'

-- Neil Drysdale * STV Aberdeen *

'Such a fantastic book. A great story in itself as well as brilliant insight into Sir Alex and his then still evolving management style. Highly recommended'
