Description Glory, Glory Lane is the life-affirming history--including a momentous last season--of a world-famous football stadium, home to Tottenham Hotspur for 118 years.
A Victorian structure turned wraparound 21st-century all-seater, it became a theater of dreams for supporters all attracted by teams which played the Spurs way to achieve glory.
The Lane gave a stage to a conveyor belt of legends from Cameron to Alli via Nicholson, Blanchflower, Greaves, Hoddle, and Klinsmann.
It provided unforgettable memories in unforgettable atmospheres--heart-lifting, heart-breaking, nerve-racking.
Its story veers from founders obsessed by Harry Hotspur to Harry Kane via Harry Redknapp; through matches, personalities, ground developments, and threatened closure, all with first-hand accounts.
It's hard to imagine how a new 750m stadium can ever replace the edifice which shut its gates for the last time after Spurs played Manchester United in May 2017, having created a daunting legacy.
About the Author Mike Donovan is an award-winning sports journalist who has authored Tottenham Hotspur-related books including Spurs' Greatest Games, Spurs' Unsung Hero and Takenote! A writer for over 40 years, he's been a boxing and tennis correspondent and a sports editor.
