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

Starting with coverage of Swansea’s 1-0 win over Pontypridd in the 1913 Welsh Cup final, this book charts a glorious history of great games and League and Cup titles through the decades of the 20th & 21st centuries.

Top early stories include knocking West Ham out of the 1922 English Cup and beating Arsenal in the 6th round in 1926. Coverage continues through the decades including the epic 5-4 win over Liverpool in 1959, & the rise through the leagues in the 70s – gaining promotion to Division 3 in 1978, Division 2 in 1979 and Division 1 in 1981. Relive how Swansea won the Welsh Cup in 1966. Read about the record attendance at Vetch Field of 32,796 against Arsenal in 1968, winning the Autoglass Trophy at Wembley in 1994, and the Football League Trophy in 2006.

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