Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pelé’s popularity as the best player in the world, and that too as the best player of all time, had transcended borders and spread throughout the world. For all football-loving countries on earth, Pelé is a God-like figure. The President of America may be the most powerful man in the world, but Pelé also got recognition throughout the world. He is the only player in the history of football to score more than 1000 goals. Pelé’s original name is Edson Arantes do Nascimento. The world doesn’t know him by such a long and complex name. He only uses this name to sign legal documents. He played his last match for Brazil in 1971. However, even after that, he remained a popular player and the nation’s pride. Pelé retired from the sport in the mid-1970s when he felt his pace has slowed down. At the time of retirement, Pelé had scored 1283 goals. Pelé died at the age of eighty-two on December 29, 2022, after suffering from colon cancer and kidney problems for a year.

Book excerpt: Even people who don't know football know Pelé. The best of a generation of Brazilian players universally acknowledged as the most accomplished and attractive group of footballers ever to play the game, he won the World Cup three times and is Brazil's all-time record goalscorer. But how did this man -- a sportsman, a mere footballer, like many others -- become a global icon? Was it just by being the best at what he did, or do people respond to some other quality? The world's greatest footballer now gives us the full story of his incredible life and career. Told with his characteristic grace and modesty, but covering all aspects of his playing days and his subsequent careers as politician, international sporting ambassador and cultural icon, PELE: THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY is an essential volume for all sports fans, and anyone who admires true rarity of spirit.

Book excerpt: How did a young boy born into poverty become not only an international soccer star but a celebrity who visited and dined with kings and presidents? Where did the passion that fueled his success originate? This book examines the life of Pelé to find the answers. Pelé is not simply an extraordinarily talented athlete who achieved incredible success on the soccer field; his performances inspired millions of soccer fans as well as individuals outside the sport around the world. During the peak of his career, Pelé was arguably the most famous person in the world—at a time when there was no Internet or social media to help build sweeping international awareness of a pop star. This work is the most up-to-date examination of Pelé's life, covering his personal history from childhood, his star-studded career as a multi-time World Cup champion playing for Brazil, his experiences in the United States playing for the New York Cosmos, as well as Pelé's more recent, current, and future activities as ambassador for Brazil when it hosts the World Cup in 2014 and the Summer Olympics in 2016. All readers—ranging from the completely uninitiated who do not even recognize Pelé's name, to die-hard soccer fans and players—will gain a full appreciation of the greatest soccer player of all time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While kicking a ball through the dusty streets of his Brazilian hometown, young Edson Arantes do Nascimento was given the nickname Pelé so casually that no one remembers its meaning. Today, the name is famous worldwide as belonging to history's greatest soccer player. Here, in Pelé's own words, is his incredible life story: his five goals in the last two games of the 1958 World Cup at the tender age of 17, his glory years with his Brazilian club FC Santos, his role in four World Cup tournaments, his comeback as a member of the storied New York Cosmos, and his lifelong role as goodwill ambassador for the world's favorite sport. Skyhorse Publishing, along with our Arcade, Good Books, Sports Publishing, and Yucca imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs. Our list includes biographies on well-known historical figures like Benjamin Franklin, Nelson Mandela, and Alexander Graham Bell, as well as villains from history, such as Heinrich Himmler, John Wayne Gacy, and O.

Book excerpt: Edson Arantes do Nascimento, known to his schoolmates as Pelé, grew up in poverty in the Sao Paulo region of Brazil. He was too poor to afford a real soccer ball, so he played with a ball of newspaper tied together with string. Yet he dominated the youth leagues and signed his first professional soccer contract at the age of fifteen. Within two years he was celebrated internationally, when he led Brazil to victory at the world cup. Known by his fans as "O Rei" (The King), Pelé is widely regarded as the greatest soccer player of all time. But he's more than just an athlete: he also traveled the world as goodwill ambassador for UNICEF. Pelé is the living symbol of a sport he dubbed "the beautiful game"—a game that brings people together regardless of race or nationality. In the graphic novel Pele: The King of Soccer, Eddy Simon and Vincent Brascaglia beautifully depict Pele's rise from the slums of Brazil to the national stage.

Book excerpt: "For an American soccer kid growing up in the ‘80s, Pelé transcended the game. From the moment I first saw him standing next to Sylvester Stallone and Michael Caine in Victory, there was only one star for me on that screen. Pelé's exciting memoir revives all the groundbreaking moments of the best there ever was." —Alexi Lalas, journalist, retired professional US soccer player The man. The legend. The autobiography. Even people who don’t know soccer know Pelé, the universally acknowledged best player of all time. Born Edson Arantes do Nascimento, “Pelé” was the youngest player to score a goal in and win the World Cup at age seventeen, the only player to win the World Cup three times, and the all-time goal scorer for Brazil. His international career helped introduce soccer to Americans, and he popularized describing the sport as “the beautiful game.” But how did this man become a global icon? In Pelé: My Story, Pelé shares in his own words the story of his incredible life and career. Told with his characteristic charm and humility, and covering all aspects of his playing days and his subsequent careers as politician, international sporting ambassador, and cultural icon, this book is the essential volume for all sports fans, and anyone who admires true rarity of spirit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pelé started playing soccer at an early age and was immediately noticed for his extraordinary talents by his peers and coaches. At the age of 15, he signed with the Santos Football Club, where he rapidly established himself as a striker capable of leading the team in scoring. In the early years of his career with Santos, he was instrumental in guiding the squad to a number of championships, including the Campeonato Paulista (Sao Paulo State Championship) in 1958, 1959, 1960, and 1961.Pelé made his first appearance for the Brazilian national team in 1958, when he was 18 years old. He scored six goals during the competition, including two in the match that decided the winner of the 1958 World Cup between Brazil and Sweden. This was a significant contribution to Brazil's triumph. Pelé's status as a budding star in the world of soccer was solidified as a result of his performance here. Throughout his career, Pelé continued to be a force to be reckoned with in the sport and set a number of records, including the record for the most goals scored in a single year (91 in 1959), the record for the most goals scored in a single World Cup tournament (12 in 1958 and 1970), and the record for the most goals scored in a career (1,281). 1977 was the year he called it quits in the professional game, and 1998 was the year he was elected into the National Soccer Hall of Fame.
