Celebrate West Ham’s Upcoming 125th Anniversary By Grabbing A Copy Of Two New Books

We are just three months away from celebrating the 125th Anniversary of West Ham’s foundation as a football club.

Originally called Thames Ironworks, being the works team of the Thames shipbuilder, the club then changed its name to West Ham United five years after its inception.

You can find out more about the Irons’ illustrious history in the book 60 Seconds that Forged the Irons, which goes over the 60 crucial moments that have helped to define the London club.

If you are interested in challenging yourself and answering a vast array of questions on the current West Ham team, you may also want to pick up the West Ham Quiz Book, which includes 100 quizzes on the Hammers.



There are so many great players that have worn the claret and blue shirt over the past century, and so many great stories, it really is a great opportunity to look back on the club’s past; especially at the moment when they are no games being played!
