The Thinkers' Factory is the compelling story of Italian coaching, uncovering how Italy has consistently produced football's finest managers. For nearly a century, Italian coaching has been the gold standard.

Appendices provide lists of the popular Django films and the Sartana films, a listing of U.S.-made Spaghetti Western lookalikes, top ten and twenty lists and a list of the genre's worst.
