Hungary’s ‘Galloping Major’, Ferenc Puskás was a three time European Cup winner and the winner of ten domestic titles, split evenly with five in his home country and five in Spain.
His 1956 autobiography, Captain of Hungary, was written after he led Hungary to the 1954 World Cup final but before his exploits in Spain playing with Real Madrid and a management career that saw him lead teams in ten different countries. The book was also written before the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 with much of the focus on Puskás’ travels on either side of the Iron Curtain with the Hungary national team.
To those who do remember him, Puskás was a goal machine, the 7th highest scorer of all time. He was also, on the basis of this book, a damn fine fellow. We really enjoyed this one.
