Campbell Bunk The Worst Street in North London Between the Wars

"A more lucid and penetrating analysis of an urban slum would be hard to imagine... A most subtle and powerful evocation of life and labour" -- Jeremy Seabrook Guardian "A brilliant and searching study... I do not believe that even Henry Mayhew could have done greater or more sympathetic justice to the memory of 'Campbell Bunk' and its inhabitants" -- Victor Neuberg British Book News "This is an enthralling book which comes as near as possible to understanding an urban community it its environment. It deserves to become a classic" Planning Perspectives
