Guest Old Canny Street Kid Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Sheffield - Britain in Old Photographs Geoffrey Howse Eastwood's History of Ecclesfield is worth mentioning --didn't I once see somewhere on Sheffield History that someone had posted the entire book on here? Add to novels with a local background --Put Yourself in His Place by Charles Reade. This is a novel about the Sheffield Outrages and the Flood of 1964. The Good Lion by Len Doherty is also a novel based on Sheffield. The author was a feature writer on The Star. Wobble To Death by Peter Lovesey is a crime novel with a Victorian setting, and Peter Lovesey based his main character on the famous Sheffield pedestrian athlete George Littlewood. Off hand, I cannot think of the titles, but pre-war there was a journalist called J.L.Hodson who wrote a number of novels, and one or two of these were set in Sheffield.
