Summary

Sorrow and joy in London's oldest suburb. . . Welcome to the East End. Life in Cockney London was tough in the post-war years. The government's broken promises had led to a chronic housing shortage, rampant crime and families living in squalor. But one thing prevailed: the unbeatable spirit of the East End, a tight-knit community who pulled through the dark times with humour and heart. Drawing on both family history and her own memories of growing up in the 1950s and '60s, as well as her working life as a district nurse and local police officer, Jean Fullerton vividly depicts this fascinating part of London - from tin baths, to jellied eels, to tigers in a Wapping warehouse. A Child of the East End is an eye-opening, heartfelt and atmospheric portrait of life in the East End after the war, perfect for fans of My East End by Gilda O'Neill and Call the Midwife by Jennifer Worth.
