Fun and original Christmas gift

This is a fun Christmas gift for the men in my family. Especially my father. We share a love of history. The books came out very nice and they even place their names on the books. Being a US customer make sure you give time for them to arrive if you want them for Christmas. The customer service team really helped also.

Great gift, I brought the Manchester united book as a gift for my partner this Christmas. He hasn’t seen it yet but I know he will love it. Great quality book, lovely gift box and arrived before the expected delivery date.
