Synopsis
This is the story of a street in London's docklands and of a family who lived in it. The street was built in the 1880s, and the Wheelright family (originally dockers) lived there until its tragic demolition in the 1960s, when it was replaced by tower blocks. As a social document, the book rings with truth, but it is much more than that: it's compelling narrative brings the reader face to face with life in London before, during and after the Second World War: the momentous changes, the growth of opportunity and the loss of community., A compelling narrative that brings the reader face-to-face with life in London before, during, and after the Second World War: the momentous changes, the growth of oppurtunity, and the loss of community., Tells the story of a street in London's docklands and of the family who lived on it. The street was built in the 1880s, and the Wheelwright family (originally dockers) lived there until its demolition in the 1960s, when it was replaced with tower blocks.

    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    Purchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
