Lost voices : memories of a vanished way of life
O'Neill, Gilda2006
Books
In the 1940s, nearly a quarter of a million East Londoners decamped annually for the hopfields of Kent. This book records the memories of some of them. It not only pays tribute to the creative genius of the working class of London's East End, but examines the role of memory and oral history in our understanding of the past.
