Fremantle Dockers: An Illustrated History
Fremantle Dockers: An Illustrated History pays tribute to the rich heritage of one of Western Australia’s most successful clubs. The Dockers became the second team from Western Australia to be admitted into the national competition in 1994—a testament to the rich football tradition and history associated with Fremantle. This book celebrates the club’s 20th anniversary in the AFL. Beautifully presented with full-colour images throughout, this book features interviews with past and current greats, including players, coaches and officials. This comprehensive illustrated history of the best of the west is a must-have for any diehard Fremantle fan.
