Book Description
Having grown up in a small town and later telling stories about youthful occurrences during that time, only fueled the author's need to eventually write some of them down. Many everyday people write their memoirs. This book is no different; and it could be said that this collection of short stories or "vignettes" put together are with humor, matter-of-factness and honesty. Without much coaxing, the reader is led down Bedford Street through the many tales along the way. Whether it's an unforgettable Christmas, being caught in a lie, getting the first bicycle or meeting one's first girlfriend...it's an easy trip. And one that may unassumingly reveal some friendly counsel or direction for youngsters growing up...no matter where they live. 5/9/2011

Horrible London (Dodo Press)
Author: George R. Sims
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781409993315
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
George Robert Sims (1847-1922) was an English journalist, poet, dramatist, novelist and bon vivant. He began writing lively humour and satiric pieces for Fun magazine and The Referee, but he was soon concentrating on social reform, particularly the plight of the poor in London's slums. A prolific journalist and writer, he also produced a number of novels. Sims is bestremembered for his dramatic monologue from The Dagonet Ballads. He also contributed numerous articles from 1879 to 1883 about the bad condition of the poor in London's slums in the Sunday Dispatch, Daily News and other papers. Many of these were later published in book form. He wrote many popular ballads attempting to draw attention to the predicament of the poor. These efforts were important in raising public opinion on the subject and led to reform legislation in the Act of 1885. Sims also raised public awareness of other issues, including white slave traffic in a series of articles published in the Daily Telegraph. His other works include: How the Poor Live (1883) and Anna of the Underworld (1916).
