It is absolutely brilliant with loads of photos, notes, maps, and other bits and bobs. If you have any connections with this part of town it is very worthwhile. Some of the photos from the 1960's really take me back to my childhood. The book shows how really awful it would have been to live in these areas in the 19th century and first half of the 20th century.
