Since 1973, the Buffalo Bills’ stadium has gone by a multitude of names, with the one name that’s stuck in fans’ references being “The Ralph” after longtime former owner Ralph C. Wilson. Whatever you call it, the stadium has been home to countless highs and lows — from dramatic Josh Allen touchdown runs to the heyday of the early 1990s Super Bowl years. And don’t forget the weather through which fans and players alike have persevered on 53 seasons worth of Sundays. Relive these remarkable years in “Farewell to The Ralph: Remembering the Place Where We Cheered, Froze, Cried and Bonded,” a 208-page coffee-table book published in premium format. It features Democrat and Chronicle sportswriter Sal Maiorana’s memories of watching games there since his childhood. A narrative section written by D&C reporter Emily Barnes spotlights the special bond between the football team and Western New York fans that has grown whether the team has been winning or, sigh, losing. You will view dozens of unforgettable photographs taken by D&C and other photojournalists. And the book will feature special coverage of the team’s last game at the stadium, on what will be a truly memorable day in Buffalo Bills history.

Customer photo review of Stormlight Archives HC Box Set 1-4: The Way of Kings, Words of Radiance, Oathbringer, Rhythm of War (The Stormlight Archive)

I’m so unbelievably stoked and happy about both sets the Mistborn and the Storm Light archives hardback books that I got from the reading spa. I just randomly fell across the reading spa in searching for these quality of books and the reading spa has far surpassed my expectations. I am really excited to continue to fill my library with hardcover books from the reading spa for years to come. Great prices, the books are an amazing shape and a brand new and they shipped them to you quickly. Thank you again for being a place I can count on for good quality, hardcover books.!

Thanks again, we are stoked that you are our customer.

These are such beautiful books. I just wish I had them all when my five kids were small. We were given eight over the years as gifts from various people. I have a large, hardbound book with all the stories in it. These stories are good for everyone to read, no matter what their age. Little kids like the nursery rhymes and bigger kids like the sass of Squirrel Nutkin. Thank you for having these books; I thought there was no place to get them but England.
