Voices of Stepney - Softcover

Dee Gordon's new book is the unique and fascinating result of many conversations with people who lived and worked in Stepney during the 1950s and '60s. Vivid memories are recounted - focusing particularly on social change. As well as school days, work and play, transport and entertainment, there are also memories of Stepney Green, the Royal London Hospital, Charrington's Brewery, Tubby Isaacs, Cable Street, and Brick Lane. Anyone who knows Stepney, as a resident or as a visitor, will be amused and entertained, surprised and moved by these stories, which capture the unique spirit of the East End.
