Post by GrubStreet »

Steve Bond will be signing copies of Shackleton Boys vol.1 and will be joined by a dozen or so veterans on each day so it promises to be a lively and popular event.

As with Steve Bond’s other books, we are expecting this launch to be hugely popular, so we recommend checking out the Newark Air Museum website for more information as we get closer to September! But if you can’t make it down to the event, you can give our office a call on 0207-924-3966 and reserve a copy! Books will be £25 plus £4 p/p and will be sent out First Class.

More details to come, but it looks like it’s going to be the event of the year! We hope to see you there!
