Ok im giving away 2 books here, both good reads and if you are a Doncaster lad and know your boxing history you may know this person who wrote the book 'Punches, Pints, Politics and Pensioners - Peter and Kate Aldridge'
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Punches-Pints-P ... 1858212537
The book is signed by Peter Aldridge
http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer
Peter Aldrige was born in Doncaster and if I remember rightly he was into bare knuckle boxing, maybe someone can confirm this.
Anyway its a good read.
The other book is called 'Becoming Holyfield'
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Becoming-Holyfi ... 1416534873
I will also pay postage costs too so basically its a FREE give away!!
Ok 1 guess per member, if the answer is not correct over a short period of time maybe a week or so I will give the members who have had a guess another go.
Ok, again as before this is not a boxing related question as all these questions are easily found on the internet.
So first correct answer wins.................. Were was this picture taken?????
