Capture the history and greatest moments of Coventry through the newspapers, as written at the time.

Starting with coverage of Coventry’s win over Nottingham Forest in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup in 1910, this book charts a glorious history of great games and titles through the decades of the 20th century.

Top stories include the 8-1 thrashing of Crystal Palace in 1935 and the 4-1 defeat over Leicester in the 1952 FA Cup 3rd round. Read about the appointment of Jimmy Hill as Manager in 1961, becoming Division 3 Champions in 1964, and Division 2 Champions in 1967. Coverage continues into the 70s including European games and the 2-1 defeat of Bayern Munich in 1970. Relive the glory of Coventry’s historic 3-2 win over Spurs to secure the FA Cup in 1987; the team’s battles against the top teams of the Premiership and the ending of an era at Highfield Road, with the 6-2 pounding of Derby in the last ever match at the old stadium.

Newspaper coverage continues right up to the end of last season. A unique and wonderful gift and must have for all Coventry fans.
