ARTICLE: An End of Innocence

Post by ClaretTony » Tue Feb 16, 2021 11:25 am

Delighted to announce that Tim Quelch has another book being published next week. While not totally a Burnley book on this occasion I think we will be making a sizeable contribution towards it.

I hadn`t realised that Jimmy Hill`s chin was that big. It`s quite a structure. Almost of industrial proportions.

Tim is an outstanding writer, and his style is evocative, but without wallowing in redacted light of nostalgia.

Looks like a good read. Should also be highlighted that all royalties will go to charity.

Other than Jimmy Hill, who are the players on the front cover?

Tim usually donates all proceeds to a deserving charity.
