Title:
Memories of Old Poplar
Description:
John Blake’s Memories of Old Poplar recounts his life in Poplar during Edwardian times. He realises that changes have happened and seeks to preserve the everyday memories of the past. In addition to his family, Blake describes churches, entertainment, and political events that stuck out in his mind. He remembers Poplar as a vibrant and thriving place in his youth, but he also remembers the decline in the dock working industry.
