Capture the history and greatest moments of Blackburn through the newspapers, as written at the time.
Starting with coverage of Blackburn’s FA Cup second round tie with Spurs in 1905, this book charts a glorious history of great games and League and Cup titles through the decades of the 20th century.
Top stories include winning the League in 1912, the epic 1928 FA Cup win over Huddersfield, promotion to Division 1 in 1939, and again in 1958, the FA Cup Final vs Wolves in 1960, and beating Spurs 7-2 in 1963. Read about the appointment of Kenny Dalglish as Manager in 1991, promotion to the Premiership in 1992 and of course becoming Champions in 1995 and much much more.
Newspaper coverage continues right up to the end of last season. A unique and wonderful gift and must have for all Blackburn fans.
