A truly detailed but hilarious account of what life was really like in Birmingham's back street slums during the 1950's post war era. John Plimmer has captured the communal spirit and discipline needed for people to survive both hardship and poverty by relating individual stories of those who stood proud no matter what difficulties and adversities they experienced during their daily lives. Back Street Urchins is a compilation of events involving individuals that formed part of a close knit community which struggled to survive during Britain's post war years. Each story depicts the true character of ordinary folk whose sense of humour and tragedy are skilfully intermingled to portray life as it was in the back street slums of a city still recovering from the Second World War. A must read for followers of historical comedy and adventures.
