About This Item
First printing. Book has a bit of creasing to the head of the spine. Unclipped DJ has light creasing to edges. Signed to a previous owner by O'Neill on the title page. The East End of London - cockneys, criminals, street markets, pub singalongs, dog racing, jellied eels. it is a place at once appealing and unruly, comforting and incomprehensible. Gilda O'Neill, an East Ender herself, shows there is more to this fascinating area than a collection of cliched images. Using oral history and more traditional sources she builds up a powerful image of this community - bringing to us, with wit and honesty, the real story of London's East End.
