You have until 12th July to be on the subscription list, and get the book at a reduced price.

Aidan Hamilton will be at St James Park on Friday 4 October to talk about his new book ‘The Story of Exeter’s St James’ Park: Land of Grecian Glory’.


Looking forward to seeing the book, though I won't be at the event as will already be in Crewe ready for the game on Saturday.

Should be a good read. Next in line perhaps the Complete Record, now almost 30 years old.

The book launch is tomorrow (Friday) at 6pm at SJP. Hope to see a few exewebbers there.

The books arrived this week and look fantastic so if you haven't yet ordered a copy, come along and get one signed by the author for just £19.99.

The publisher has posted subscriber copies so these will arrive via Royal Mail any day now!

Ordered 2 but only one arrived. Have to ring them in the morning. Interesting book. Good read so far.

I went along to the launch on Friday and a very good evening it was too.

I haven’t had the chance the start reading it yet but it looks great and it's important to note that this isn’t just a book about ECFC, it’s also a book about local history.

For instance, I’d assumed that the new student block which has been named Clifford House was something to do with Cliff Hill but, no, it relates to something much, much earlier (no spoilers).

Hope all the subscriber copies have now arrived (mine has) as I know the publisher posted them out last week.

The book is now available in the club shop:
