"There simply isn't another club history as comprehensive as Of Fossils & Foxes." - Soar Media --- "It's a winner! They [Smith and Taylor] really have excelled themselves. They have used the nine years since edition two was published to resource, research and rediscover City's rich and hugely eventful history. Smith and Taylor can be proud of their efforts. Edition three is a whopping hard-bound 544 pages, 40 per cent bigger than its predecessor. It is packed with well-written narrative and illustrated by more than 1,600 images. And it is printed in full colour... Great for those who love their facts and figures, great for those who love a good read, and great for anyone connected with the club."

Subtitled 'The Official, Definitive History of Leicester City Football Club', Of Fossils and Foxes does exactly what it says on its huge, sumptuous cover. It's been over 20 years since Dave Smith and Paul Taylor produced the first edition of the book, and another 10 since the expanded and updated second edition; but this giant third edition is truly all-inclusive, bang up-to-date and more comprehensive than anything that has gone before - and that's true of every other club's official histories as well as Leicester City's. Not only are the 550 large-size pages packed with the fruit of years' worth of diligent research - they're also eminently readable and enjoyably dippable. Once again, the club's history is presented from three different viewpoints: a narrative history; a complete who's who covering every first-class player; and a complete set of season-by-season results, scorers, and line-ups, covering every first-class fixture, and much, much more.
