Opis

All across America, fans of Liverpool Football Club gather at their favorite watering holes for a few hours each weekend to witness the mighty Reds play in the English Premier League and other competitions. Sometimes these matches kick off well before any sane person would be awake, yet their passion for the club is unrivaled. During the 2015-16 season, Kenneth J. Kendra traversed the country visiting various pubs to watch Liverpool matches live with their supporters, exploring the reasons each chooses to support the Reds while documenting the various emotions from the day's match as well as the ups and downs of the season. The title "Walking Through The Storm" is a reference from the Liverpool anthem whose opening lyrics remind fans to hold your head up high as you walk through a storm. In this case the storm is a metaphor for the tempestuous and turbulent emotions a supporter experiences through an entire season as a fan of Liverpool Football Club. Find out why these fans never walk alone, through the stormy "ups" and "downs" of the season, holding their heads up high searching for that golden sky of Liverpool glory. *** Includes a special appendix listing all known North American pubs which host Liverpool supporters clubs (both official and unofficial) on match day
