Real life London in 1849.
A journey through the back streets and into the lives of the people in early Victorian London.
Henry Mayhew , the pioneering social investigative journalist, takes us around the capital and reveals a hidden life - the real Dickens' London.
He ventures into places where only the very poorest are forced to tread, interviews the people encountered and publishes their words.
In this volume we enter the two-penny lodging houses.
