Really good overview of the rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona. Understandably, a large portion of the book is devoted to how the clubs existed during Franco’s regime and the political implications of their alignments. That part started to drag a little bit, but that would be my only quibble. It’s current up to Mourinho leaving Real. So a bit dated now but still well worth reading!
