The exhilarating story of the life and times of Davie Wilson, one of the greatest forwards ever to play for Rangers FC. The book is filled with anecdotes and memories from Wilson's playing career.

Wilson on the Wing is the exhilarating story of the life and times of Davie Wilson, one of the greatest forwards ever to play for Rangers FC. Spotted as a schoolboy, Wilson began at Ibrox in 1956. After being lauded in the Scottish press for his early performances, he became a stalwart of the great Rangers side of the early 1960s. He soon gained a reputation as not just a creator of goals but a regular scorer, and was part of an attacking trident that netted over 100 goals in the 1962/63 season. Wilson on the Wing traces Davie's life from his mining-village roots to his emergence as one of the greatest Scottish wingers of his generation. The book is filled with anecdotes and memories from Wilson's playing career - as well as his time at Rangers, there are stories from playing at Dundee United and Dumbarton, plus his 22 Scotland appearances. With contributions from, among others, Sir Alex Ferguson, Denis Law and members of Davie's family, this heart-warming tale presents the inside story of a true Scottish football legend.

Davie Wilson joined forces with renowned football author Alistair Aird to write this book. Alistair is the author of numerous books and writes for various football websites. His most recent work, Rangers FC in the 1980s: The Players' Stories, was a collaboration with former players who recounted their memories of playing for Rangers in a turbulent and transitional decade.
