Commemorative Book - Horse Racing Edition
Relive in newsprint, the exhilarating moments of the best horse races from the 1904 Triple Crown to recent times. Read about the suffragette who threw herself in front of the Kings horse at the 1913 Derby, or how only 2 horses finished the 1928 Grand National.

Fantastic Gift
Date:27 February 2012
"I bought this on behalf of everyone where I work for a colleagues 70th (yes, 70th!) birthday. He is a huge horse racing fan. He was absolutely chuffed to bits. Another colleague was so impressed that he asked for the details so he could buy his dad one. I think it's my best birthday purchase to date!"

Date:23 January 2010
"This is a lovely gift, and the personalisation makes it even more special. Present for dad's 67 birthday in Jan, and he's really into horse racing, so has found this book very interesting. Just a word of caution-i ordered a week before xmas & due to high demand it took nearly 4 weeks, so order in plenty of time! ( customer services were excellent-very helpful.)"

Response from GettingPersonal.co.uk:By Georgia, Customer Services, 27 January 2010
I am very sorry for delay on your book over Christmas. This was due to the adverse weather; a lot of the staff couldn't get to the warehouse, and the delivery company were unable to deliver parcels in certain areas for a couple of weeks. Everything has now gone back to normal and the books are being delivered within the timescales stated.

Commemorative Book - Horse Racing Edition
Date:22 January 2010
"The book is extremely well made and very interesting. It was bought as a 70th birthday gift for my Dad and he is really pleased with it. The only thing I would say is order in plenty of time, as the time limit stated is 5-7 working days, but with delivery, this works out at much nearer 10. Would definitely order something similar again for a special birthday."
