From a windswept corner of North Wales to the global sporting stage, Wrexham AFC's journey is a saga unlike any other. Founded in 1864, the Red Dragons endured more than a century and a half of triumphs, heartbreaks, and the unbreakable bond of community-a story shaped by legendary Welsh Cup wins, stirring giant-killings, and bitter battles for survival. Yet nothing could prepare the world for the extraordinary transformation that began in 2020, when Hollywood visionaries Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney brought new hope, global attention, and an audacious ambition to a club rooted in tradition. Told through rich narrative and meticulously-researched fact, Red Dragons Rise charts the evolution of Wrexham AFC from its Victorian birth to its meteoric climb through the English football leagues, culminating in a return to the Championship after decades in the wilderness. The book uncovers how the confluence of history, celebrity, and grassroots loyalty created a modern sporting phenomenon-one that redefined what's possible for small-town clubs worldwide. With portraits of players, supporters, and personalities who shaped each era, this is the definitive chronicle of Wrexham's rebirth-a celebration of resilience, hope, and the power of football to unite a city and inspire the world.
