For the first time ever, an incredible visual archive of Ultras worldwide is curated in this book. Beneath the surface of modern life, the ancient urge for fanatacism and tribal warfare lives on. Their exploits are legendary, their tales are tall, hated and feared by millions, yet idolised by a hardcore minority. In a world in which we are told place no longer means anything - loyalty to a team, loyalty to an area, loyalty to a social class, are all out of time. And yet here they are, continuing to exist in this highly structured and obsessive world. From its roots in the South America in the 50s, the worldwide scene is explored from Turkey to Russia, Asia, Ukraine, Poland, Italy, France, Europe and its emergence and appropriation in North America. Whether you are disgusted or fascinated - this is human behaviour. For some, this has always been and will always be, a way of life.

Potter, Patrick: - Patrick Potter has been writing books about street art, subcultures and style tribes for the last decade. He serves provocative banter with a twist of anarchic comedy. People say it's fun to read. His books have sold in the tens of thousands around the world, and his colloquial register has tortured translators from several nations. He lives on the south coast of England with his wife and two scamps.
