In England, the year 1966 will always be synonymous with one event: the FIFA World Cup. Both the only tournament staged in England, and the country’s only triumph to date, the 1966 World Cup is still as popular and fondly remembered as ever.

From the Hand of God to Gazza’s tears, this World Cup book takes you on a journey through eleven tournaments, setting off in England in 1966 and heading for Germany in 2006, stopping at Spain, Mexico and the United States along the way, all in the form of both newspaper clippings from the time and stunning pitchside pictorials.
The 1966 World Cup newspaper book is presented in a hard-bound black leather cover, and comes with a free premium gift box. The book features segments of colour photos as well as black and white, truly bringing this vibrant and exciting time in history to life.

Absolutely brilliant book.

I have had books similar to this in the past where you personalise the story but I was surprised and extremely pleased when I received this book. I am sure the person I bought it for will be pleased if somewhat surprised finding his name and his friends name in the book. The quality of the book was excellence with the pictures in bright colours. It looks inviting to read . I would certainly recommend this product. thank you so much.

I bought this for my six year old football mad son as a present from Santa given to him by santa at his kindergarden and he absolutely loves it. It made his day, he can't put it down, I have to read it to him every day and he is so excited - I'm really glad I bought this book.

Bought this book for my husband's 60th birthday and am delighted with it. He will love it! He himself was a world cup referee twice! Mexico 86 and Italy 90 so this book is a lovely item for him to keep, read and treasure.

My mum is the worlds biggest foot -ball and Ruby fan. She was so delighted with this gift, her excitement to see her name in a book about football was wonderful to see. To many of the spoof magazines are for men so I was delighted that this one gave me to option to include a female . she said she will treasure it for ever and be able to show it off to her gran kids, who are all football mad as well. Its 24 pages of a well scripted story in which she is the star. this is a wonderful gift and well worth its price.

What can you buy a football mad boy for his 18th birthday, a quality gift that he will keep & look at, rather than a gift which would be put away & never see the light of day again - answer - A World Cup history told through newspaper reports of the time! I am now a cool aunty

Pleased with quick delivery
Pleased with quick delivery, lovely story for my Great Grandson who is 2half years old. Disapointed with the actual quality overall for the price you charged, regarding the quality of the thiness of the paper. Was expecting thicker pages.

90th Birthday Gift
We bought this for a relative's 90th Birthday present who lives in the south of England and as we live in the north it was delivered directly to him. It arrived on the day of his Birthday and he was absolutely delighted with it. He wouldn't have been happier if we'd given him ÂŁ1,000. Thank you so much for a unique gift

I wanted to get my daughter something
I wanted to get my daughter something special for her birthday and In The Book did not disappoint! I bought her a personalised princess book which was great because it allowed me to put a picture of her inside and a special birthday message. When it arrived it came in a keepsake Disney box. My daughter absolutely loves it!
I would highly recommend In The Book because they provide a fast delivery service and quality products.
