There's nothing as enjoyable as a book by an author who's passionate about their subject, how you suddenly get caught up in their enthusiasms and (for a while) share them. Actually the passion for stadiums is an easy one to understand - there's something almost reverential about the arena space itself (none more so than Centre Court a day before the championships). Stadia, arenas, domes, pitches - each unique and each with a story to tell.
