Arsenal Book List by the Highbury Librarian
On twitter recently talk turned to books and The Highbury Librarian offered to send out his list for fellow book enthusiasts to mull over.
Here it is and for the record my favourite autobiography is Peter Storey’s.

Dan Brennan – The Official Arsenal Miscellany (Hamlyn, 2004)
Paul Joseph(ed.) – It’s Up For Grabs Now… (A Greg Mitchell Publication, 2005)
Spot on. I’ll add these to the list.
Achieving the goal – David Platt
It appears this book was published just as he signed for Arsenal which he mentions on page 235 the last one in the book . In the epilogue he says he scored his first home goal v Nottingham Forest and is looking forward to the future under Bruce Rioch . On the back cover he is pictured wearing an Arsenal shirt.
That sums up the Arsenal content .
Why did I buy the book ?
Once again a brilliant post . I have collected most of your list but did not seem to see the following:
Platt – Acheving goals 1995
Huddy – 2017
and one of my favourites on my childhood hero Joe Baker and his brother entitled
The fabulous Baker boys . 2013.
Thanks for these.
I think that ‘Achieving the Goal’ was published just before Platt joined Arsenal.
Chapman to Mee, Arsenal History full record published in Nowway, Virgin book of Arsenal Facts, Herbert Chapam book he bought in 1934 ???
Many thanks.
Finn’s ‘Chapman to Mee’ and Chapman’s ‘on Football’ are on the list. I think the history is by Grant and White (1988), which will be added to the list.
Is the Virgin book you mention Bruce Smith’s ‘Arsenal Fact File’, which featured Virgin sponsorship on the cover?
