Description - The Little History of the East End by Dee Gordon
A colourful and engaging history of London's East End. Written by an East Ender with a love of her roots, this is a non-academic look at the area's history, starting before the Romans. The last couple of hundred years have been well documented but the East End's history has much more to offer. This little history can dipped in and out of, or read from cover to cover - either way will reveal what has made the East End the diverse place it is today. AUTHOR: Dee Gordon is the author of numerous local history titles about the East End and Essex. She has given lots of talks about local history, writing and the use of the apostrophe! She has also written poetry, for which she has won several prizes. She leads a book group and writing group for carers, and always takes part in Southend and Essex Book Festivals. She lives in Southend, but keeps in touch with her Stepney roots. 30 b/w illustrations
