Strange and Unusual Tales from the Isle of Dogs

By The Islander

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
