The pie at night : what the North does for fun

Maconie, Stuart2016
Book
Factory, mine, and mill. Industry, toil, and grime. Its manufacturing roots mean we still see the North of England as a hardworking place. But, more than possibly anywhere else, the North has always known how to get dressed up, take itself out on the town and have a good time. After all, working and playing hard is its specialty. Stuart Maconie is in search of what, exactly, this entails and what it tells us about the North today, as, following tip-offs and rumour, he takes trips to forgotten corners and locals' haunts.
