Do you know a budding historian? Do you want to give the gift knowledge and history? Look no further than this newspapers of the 1950s book, which collates genuine newspaper coverage from the LA Times throughout the 1950s. This book uses reportage to plot a fascinating history to offer unrivalled insight into years gone by.

The book covers the conflict in Korea in extensive detail, up to the eventual July 1953 truce. It also contains various reports on the Cold War and charts the death of Stalin in March 1953. Rising Cuban tensions and Suez Crisis are also documented in unrivalled detail.

You can also read about the creation of the H bomb, and the Russians launch of their satellite to orbit the earth, along with a second satellite with a dog on board. For added charm, personalise this book with a name and presentation message.

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 £1,000. 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.
