Feet of the Chameleon - The Story of African Football is the prize-winning book by Ian Hawkey which traces the development of the world’s favourite sport through the tangled history and complex social and political life of the African continent.

Drawing on his own extensive experience, years of research and interviews with those involved in all levels of the African game, Ian Hawkey has crafted a book in response to the surge of interest in African football, perhaps best epitomised by the mergence of top African players gracing the European leagues. He also analyses African football's unique qualities and the successes that both national and domestic teams have enjoyed, and shows how African football has fought against racism, corruption and political interference.
