Red Dawn: The Ballad of Tom Watson and Liverpool FC's First Champions is the remarkable tale of how Tom Watson, a man from the North East of England and a serial champion with Sunderland, led Liverpool to their first top-flight titles in 1901 and 1906. The book reveals Watson's Reds in stunning detail.
Red Dawn: The Ballad of Tom Watson and Liverpool FC's First Champions is the remarkable tale of how Tom Watson, a man from the North East of England, provided the spark that led to the Anfield club's first two top-flight titles in 1901 and 1906.
Watson was a visionary whose training methods, advice to players on diet and somewhat controversial recruitment strategy would no doubt raise eyebrows in the modern era. However, he would provide the blueprint for success that saw him become Liverpool's longest-serving manager.
Watson's men were the superstars of their day, and included heroic captain Alex Raisbeck and lethal marksman Sam Raybould, not to mention the incomparable Matt McQueen, a future title-winning manager in his own right.
Red Dawn is Jeff Goulding and Kieran Smith's second collaboration, and like their previous title, The Untouchables: Anfield's Band of Brothers, the book sheds new light on a previously unheralded period in the club's history.

Red Dawn: The Ballad of Tom Watson and Liverpool FC's First Champions is a second collaboration between Jeff Goulding - author of seven books on Merseyside football - and Kieran Smith, an unofficial Liverpool FC historian, founder of Liverpool FC Historical Group and associate member of the Everton FC Heritage Society. Both men are ardent Reds who share a passion for bringing to life the history of Liverpool FC and improving our understanding of it.
