Yorkshire Post Book Award Winners

"First given in 1972, the Yorkshire Post book award has changed more than most competitions. In 1972 there were awards for best book, finest fiction work, best first work, and runner-up for best first work. This award is unusual in its relatively slight emphasis on fiction. Only once (1988) has the Best Book, or Book of the Year, gone to a novel; more often the most honored book is a work of history, often military history, travel or biography. It was last given in 1997"
