Into The Darkness
Canny Old Shields
by Doris Elsy
Published by South Tyneside Libraries
2000
This is an account of growing up in South Shields. The sights, sounds and smell of the 1920's and 190's are vividly captured, in a book which is part biography and part local history.
Originally written for the author's family, the work is a testimony to an indomitable spirit.
Doris Elsy was born, and has lived most of her life in South Shields. This is her story, in her own words, 'she is no one special'.
