Book Description
Updated for 2024, and (hopefully) to coincide with the club's return to the Premier League, Ipswich Town On This Day is an appointment with those magical days and memorable moments from the club's illustrious past - with an entry for every day of the year. From Town's Victorian formation through to the Premier League era, the Portman Road faithful have witnessed promotions and relegations, league and cup triumphs, hard-fought derbies and unforgettable European nights - and they all feature here - along with all-time greats such as John Wark, Ray Crawford, Billy Baxter, Arnold Muhren and Mick Mills. Revisit 18th January 1969 for Bobby Robson's first game in charge, a 2-2 draw away at Everton. 30th October 1926, when Barclays Bank beat Town 3-1 at Portman Road, but not before the game had been held up to clear an invasion of rats. Or 20th May 1981, that wonderful night that Town won the UEFA Cup in Amsterdam!

Book Description
The year 1645 saw the biggest witch-hunt in English history. Faced by the extreme challenges of religious dissent, poverty, sickness and the threat of foreign invasion, Ipswich became an ideological battlefield during the English Civil Wars. Here Puritanism struggled against Catholic sensibilities, the Devil loomed at the door of every English home, and the age of the witchfinder was born. This book focuses on witchcraft in Ipswich and the most extreme punishment ever given to an English witch, and challenges some stereotypes of the period: reflecting on the growth in Puritan sects, gender politics, the exploitation of the poor, the importance of beliefs in the occult and the rise of English power in the New World.
