FARGATEOWL Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Read quite a few, the Complete Record is great for dipping in and out of to confirm random memories. Â Owls In The Modern Era is the best read of the lot in my opinion. Really enlightening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 I love the Fred Spiksley book - it's definitely one for Wednesday fans who want to learn stuff about the club they never even imagined  Owlstalk Shop    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDOWL Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 'The Complete Record' is superb in my opinion,my son bought it for me as a birthday present when published and I'm proud to be in the roll of honour lists. Also enjoyed very much "Our Lowest Ebb" and dip in regularly to "A Quarter of Wednesday",again very good. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Di Canio's book is also a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJMortimer Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 'A Quarter of Wednesday' is the best one I've read by a distance. The 'Complete Record' is excellent too but it's more of a reference book than a great 'read'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a good read/reference is Jason Dickinson's '150 Years The Official History'. They have all had their fair share of page turning these past twelve months.

@owlstalk Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 Just now, MarvelOwls said: Mate bought me Mark Brights book for my birthday. Decent read. Palmer's was ok too. Wonder if Waddle would ever do one?  He must have at least one book in him One of our local writers should make him an offer to co-write it with him!  Owlstalk Shop    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon it would fly off the shelves. Theres 40 years of football he could write about. Looking forward to the Alex Miller one. Might get my pre order in I've pre-ordered mine. There's over 50 interviews in it!  Owlstalk Shop    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Got and read the majority of them and others already. My favourite Wednesday related books are Flying Over an Olive Grove; The Origins of Sheffield Wednesday, The Man Who Saved Barcelona, Grandad What Was Football Like in the 1970s and Grandad What Was Football Like in the 1960s. I'd also recommend non Wednesday books but football history in general books When Footballers Were Skint and Inverting the Pyramid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
