'Honest Dodworth' - where can I get a copy?
« on: Friday 09 May 08 22:32 BST (UK) »
I've recently been told of a book called 'Honest Dodworth' which features many old photos of Dodworth in days gone by.  I believe it has pictures of at least one of my ancestors, and would really love to get hold of a copy.

I've looked all over the internet to no avail, and phoned WH Smith and another bookshop in Barnsley,  but both were unable to help... can anyone on here??

Hopefully....
