The
Best of the Blues: A Tribute to Rangers' Greatest Ever Team, by Robert
MacCallum (2001)
THIS book attempts to show that there was an even finer team in the 1960s than Celtic's legendary Lisbon Lions, one that has been vastly underrated - the Rangers side of 1960-64.
For many people, that decade was the most wonderful decade of the 20th century, conjuring up images of The Beatles and Flower Power - but the era is memorable for many Scottish football fans, because their clubs produced their finest-ever teams.
Kilmarnock and Dundee created title-winning sides, the latter going on to be beaten by AC Milan in the semi-final of the European Cup. Dunfermline appeared in three Cup Finals, winning two of them.
But it is Rangers' achievements over a period of years - and not just one triumph - that will have cemented in fans' memories legendary names such as Ritchie, Shearer and Caldow.
