Mr Corinthian is the first-ever biography of Nicholas Lane ('Pa') Jackson, founding father of the celebrated Corinthian Football Club. For the last 100 years, Jackson's version of the Corinthian story has been accepted as a faithful record of the famous club's history - but it wasn't. This book is a search for the truth.

The son of a plantation owner and a free woman of colour, Andrew Watson was not only the first black football player, he was one of the best in the world. He was carelessly lost to history for more than 100 years, and only recently have we come to terms with his influence on the development of the game and recognised his remarkable achievements.
