You've probably heard about this, but in case you haven't, Callum Bates with help from Pete Brooksbank and Christian James has been working on a book called "Tales of a Pilgrim". This is a collection of stories and memories from the fans of the club. It is being put together from responses to a set of sixteen questions that have been distributed to Boston fans over social media as well as more traditional means at matches. There are already lots of great stories and the book will be published in time for Christmas.

The closing date for submission is the end of August. You can answer the sixteen questions online via an easy-to-use form here:

It's also got a fair number of match reports from both recent and classic games, many with photos.
