East End Pubs
In the last decade, London's East End has seen some of the highest rates of pub closures in Britain. Once bastions of the local community, where neighbours living cheek-by-jowl could convene over a pint, the traditional East End pub is in danger of becoming a relic. It's time to halt the tide and celebrate these great pubs so we don't lose them forever. From wet led backstreet boozers to gastropubs serving local produce and craft ale, this book celebrates the rich histories, snug bars, welcoming Guv'nors, florid carpets, loyal punters and inventive landladies of these unique and cherished institutions.

An East End Story
One evening in the long hot summer of 1959, Alfred Gardner was walking home along Commercial Road. Noticing a woman who had collapsed, he ran to a phone box to call an ambulance only to be beaten to it by an older man. Chance encounters often spark friendships and this was to be the start of a camaraderie spanning thirty-seven years. They were an unlikely duo. Gardner, in his late teens, had never journeyed too far from Stepney. Upson, in his early thirties, had an extraordinary life already. For Gardner, the Second World War meant vague memories of returning from evacuation in Hartlepool in 1944 to a Stepney now under threat from Germany's V1 and V2 rockets. But two years earlier, Upson had...
