This book gives an account of the role of the common lodging house in nineteenth century Britain, from the perspective of the people who used them: criminals, drifters, the unemployed, homeless, recent immigrants and those who had fallen on hard times.

Fascinating and much forgotten story of Manchester's contribution to the Great War.

Set against the backdrop of World War II, the narrative intertwines the stories of the author’s grandfathers, one Irish and the other Turkish, both imprisoned during the conflict. It delves into themes of politics, murder, and espionage while also serving as a personal exploration of familial connections and the boundaries that define them. Through this dual lens, the book offers a compelling examination of heritage and the complexities of identity shaped by historical events.
