Blackhurst is an enormously talented writer' City A.M. From Chris Blackhurst, the former Editor of the Independent, comes The World's Biggest Cash Machine, a gripping and tightly reported account of how the Glazers, owners of Manchester United, became the most maligned figures in the Premier League, and how they changed the beautiful game forever.

But what defines this secretive family, and do these astute businessmen deserve the opprobrium they receive?
