'The author, born in 1909 and an iron-worker by trade, experienced three separate and successive worlds in the first three decades of his life. Industrial Bristol as the urban space of his early life, the transitory, moving world of the SS Demosthenes bound from Southampton to Australia. and a new life for the family as a Bristol boy amongst Bristol boys, and finally his adolescent and young adult life in Mayfield, Newcastle, Australia, and in particular "Pommy Town". This very special book provides a steady series of clear historical images of places in Newcastle that have now disappeared, and a look at the social life of a closely-knit working class community.'
