She had worked for airlines in Nairobi for many years and knew the challenges of running a successful company inside out, but that meant nothing when the country became independent and no longer tolerated a white woman in authority. Returning home to Africa after her wartime service, she met and married the man who was to be her partner for forty-five years. She couldn't settle into the life of being an obedient housewife and mother and forged a career as an airline executive in what was a man's world. Her career had taken her to the top.

Paul Lambert has had an amazing career, becoming the first Scot to take advantage of the Bosman ruling, signing for Borussia Dortmund. There, he inspired his star-studded team-mates—among them Andreas Moller, Matthias Sammer, and Jurgen Kohler—to their European Cup triumph over the mighty Juventus. Lambert signed for Celtic where, within weeks of his transfer, he picked up a League Cup winner's medal, and he seems destined for more success with the rejuvenated Parkhead squad. This book takes us inside two of the biggest clubs in Europe as Lambert recounts the events of the past few years. He details how he helped tame Manchester United in the Champions' League and how he dealt with the threat of such brilliant players as Del Piero and Zidane in the final. He explains why he returned to Scotland and what life is really like at Parkhead—and why he believes Celtic are set to become the country's number-one club again.
