Strange and Unusual Tales from the Isle of Dogs

Although not a born and bred 'Islander', it did not take me long to fall under its spell. The Isle of Dogs is a place of great contrasts and contradictions but is home to thousands and the work destination of many thousands more. My interest in local history led me into many of the nooks and crannies of the island and led to an idea of spreading its magic further afield. For even in London the 'island' is relatively unknown and understood. When I began the Isle of Dogs Life blog in 2012, I had no idea it would become popular with people all around the world and introduce me to many fascinating people and places. Over the years, many people have asked when I was going to write a book and finally I have succumbed to the idea. I have always enjoyed finding strange and unusual stories about the 'Island' and the surrounding area and I am delighted to bring them together and share them with you. Happy reading The Islander
