Frederick David Book (born 1905, died 1990) was an Australian rules football administrator and City of Perth Councillor. In 1928 Book was elected Treasurer of the East Perth Football Club. Retiring in 1973 he had served the club in different roles for a total of 45 years including a record 20 years as club president. It is Book who is credited with saving Perth Oval from being acquired by the army for use as a depot. In 1956 as a tribute to his service to the club, the new grandstand was named in his honour. The F.D. Book Stand still stands to this day although Perth Oval is no longer used for Australian rules football. He also had East Perth's best and fairest award, the F. D. Book Medal, named in his honour.[1][2] At the 1950 state election, Book stood for the Liberal Party in the seat of East Perth, but was defeated by the sitting Labor member, Herb Graham.[3] References1. ^{{cite web | title =History - Administrators | publisher =East Perth Football Club |date=April 2002 | url =http://www.eastperthfc.com.au/history/25 | accessdate = 2008-12-15}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Book, Fred}}{{Australia-Liberal-politician-stub}}{{AFL-bio-1900s-stub}}2. ^{{cite journal| quotes = | last = Brokensha| first = P| authorlink = | coauthors = |date= May 1948| title = Installation of Bro Frederick David Book| journal = The West Australian Craftsman| volume = 15| issue = | pages = 23–24| publisher = Freemason's Club| location = Perth, Western Australia| issn = | pmid = | pmc = | doi = | bibcode = | oclc = | id = | url = | language = | format = | accessdate =| laysummary = | laysource = | laydate = | quote=}} 3. ^{{cite book|last=Black|first=David|authorlink=David Black (historian)|last2=Prescott|first2=Valerie|title=Election statistics : Legislative Assembly of Western Australia, 1890-1996|year=1997|publisher=Western Australian Parliamentary History Project and Western Australian Electoral Commission|location=Perth, [W.A.]|isbn=0730984095}} 6 : Western Australian local government politicians|East Perth Football Club administrators|1990 deaths|1905 births|Liberal Party of Australia politicians|20th-century Australian politicians |
