Scandal !


Scandal-The Stories that Shocked the Nation Personalised Historic Newspaper Book


 Scandal-The Stories that Shocked the Nation Personalised Historic Newspaper Book

 Read about the scandals as they happened and were reported in the Times newspaper in this beautiful handmade Leatherette book
which can be personlalised to include:

* A personalised front cover with your name or - if it is a gift - the recipents name

* A gift message on the inside cover.


Each story is categorised in chapters such as “Celebrity and Showbiz” which records the exploits of Oscar Wilde to Kate Moss. A chapter on Sporting scandals, includes Lester Piggott, Ben Johnson, and Sven-Goran Erikson. A chapter on Royalty & Aristocracy covers tales from Victoria’s son, Edward Prince of Wales to Lord Lucan, Diana and Paul Burrell. Political indiscretions are also covered, from Palmerston’s resignation in 1851 to David Blunkett resignation in more recent years.

This fascinating book gives a real insight into the social issues of the day, viewed at different times in our history. Scandal as judged by the norms and social behaviour of the time. What was seen as unacceptable yesterday may seem trivial today, and then again reading the news headlines in this book one cannot but conclude that some aspects of British behaviour really have changed very little

The news reports are recreated and bound in this beautiful handmade Leatherette book. The Times Book is 43cm x 32cm and Navy Blue and can be personalised with the name of the recipient, gold embossed on the front cover. The total number of pages is 163.


Price:   £54.99
