"The idea for a book on the East End formed sometime in the 1980s. The London Docks had already closed down orwere starting to. I chose to shoot mainly in the districts of Silvertown and Canning Town. I have over the years spentmany weekends shooting whatever took my fancy.

At the time I didn't give it muchthought. Later I assumed it was from America and that it went back to the middle of the nineteenth century, when America'swest coast was opening up to great wealth and opportunities. The cockneys should have listened, but they didn't. Theywent east like their ancestors before them. The ones that moved east out of 'Old Nichol' went to Whitechapel, then onto Stepney and Bow, then to what is now called Newham and later to Barking, Dagenham and onto Essex.My mother was from Bow, my father it seems was from Hackney, my grandfather from Bethnal Green. Before him theyall were from Whitechapel as far as records show." David Bailey
