You'll love this because...
Via newspaper clippings, you can relive the history of Reading FC.
Personalise with any name and message
Handbound hardback covers
A3 and A4 editions with colour pages available from 2006 onwards
Option to present in a luxurious gift box
Incredible newspaper coverage from 1912 to the present day
Relive the history of Reading football club through newspaper clippings in this personalised Reading football book. With coverage beginning in 1912, this fine piece of Reading football memorabilia takes you through over a century of history, revisiting all the key moments from Elm Park, the Madejski and beyond, right up until the present day.
Reading hold two particularly impressive records. First, the most consecutive wins to start a season: 13, in the 1985/86 Division Three campaign; and second, the most points accumulated in any professional league season: 106 in the 2005/06 Championship. The latter is particularly noteworthy, as it also signalled Reading’s promotion to the top flight of English football for the first time ever, having been denied access in 1995 despite finishing runners-up in the second tier, a cruel result of the streamlining of the Premier League from 22 teams to 20. Reading would defy the odds and finish 8th in their first top flight season, thanks in part to the impressive performances of Leroy Lita, Kevin Doyle, Steve Sidwell, Nicky Shorey and James Harper.
Take a look at the contents to see which historic moments are captured.

When I first tried to place my order…
When I first tried to place my order for Swallows and Amazon personalised hardback the website would not allow me to enter my message. I telephoned and was told by a very helpful lady who I think her name was Sandra told me it was a technical problem and she would get back to me when it was resolved. I was amazed that at 9am the next morning she called me to say all was now fixed.The customer service was great and when the book was received it was really good quality. Very impressed and would recommend.

Promises of delivery date..completely…
Promises of delivery date..completely wrong and not so helpful folk.
Product...much, much smaller and thinner than I had believed. Not sure I would repeat my experience with company.
Lisa jane29 Sep 2020
Not great
To be honest I was slightly let down... the book basically has my nieces name on the front of the book and that's it! I thought her name would have been involved in the story?! €28 is alot of money for something I could have done myself!

Nicely presented book.
The book was presented very nicely and looks very engaging. There were two pronoun errors in the text but given that it took a while to arrive, I don't have time for an exchange before the date I intend to present the book. The receiver is not at an age where he will be bothered around pronouns too much but likely to be delighted to see himself and his beloved dog in the story. It would be good if there were a range of different adventures to choose from.

The service given and the final product…
The service provided and the final product were both fantastic. Having made an inputting error (wrong year!) at the point of order, the error was picked up, queried and corrected by a member of the In The Book team, before going to print. My parents were simply delighted with the finished product; they described it as beautifully presented, a trip down memory lane and a real keep sake to share with friends and family. Thank you In The Book.

The Haynes guide for Pensioners…
The Haynes guide for Pensioners dedicated to Arthur was a huge hit! His thank you card about it read that he had started out with chuckles and giggles but it became laugh out loud funny once he had claimed it from the rest of the family!
