Description
East London A 1960s Album captures the gritty reality of life in East London during the Swinging Sixties. The photographs reveal a community preoccupied with concerns such as poverty, poor housing, and industrial unrest, rather than the pop revolution or flower power. Steve Lewis's work provides a unique glimpse into street life, documenting scenes like the milkman struggling under his handcart and the rag-and-bone man plodding through the streets. Many of the locations he photographed have changed beyond recognition, with Tower blocks replacing Blitz-scarred terraces and docklands evolving into a commercial hub. This book offers a poignant snapshot of a bygone era, revealing the traditions and ways of life that were lost as the East End was transformed.
