Just finished reading Jack's Return Home by Ted Lewis (or Get Carter as the film was called). I've seen the film countless times but didn't realise the book was actually set in Doncaster not Newcastle until I read the blurb!
Also picked up a copy of 50 Years of British Style Culture by Josh Sims this week from the Ben Sherman Outlet in York.
Flicking through it, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly new and insiteful about "Youth Culture", but there are some nice pics and the book does feel like a quality product.
