Coles Africa's Cup: A Short History of the Africa Cup of Nations at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
In 1957, three nations - Egypt, Ethiopia, Sudan - gathered in Khartoum to contest a trophy that would become the heartbeat of a continent. From that modest beginning emerged the Africa Cup of Nations —a tournament that has crowned dynasties and elevated underdogs, survived civil wars and celebrated independence, transformed tragedy into triumph and made heroes of ordinary men. This is more than a football story. It's the tale of Zambia's team rising from the ashes of a plane crash, of Nelson Mandela dancing in victory, of Egypt's unprecedented dominance and Ivory Coast's miraculous resurrection. Through seven decades of drama, the tournament has served as Africa's mirror—reflecting its politics and struggles, celebrating its achievements, and showcasing its irrepressible spirit to the world. This book captures the political intrigue, sporting brilliance, and human drama that make AFCON unlike any other tournament.
