Books By Dee Gordon - Author
Dee Gordon is an adopted Essex girl, having started life in the East End of London. Although widely published in teenage magazines when working as a teenage secretary, she did not return to this, her first love, until selling her recruitment business in 2000. Since then she has written nineteen local history books and a couple of novels as well as the occasional poem. She has been living in the Southend area since 1983, a place she aspired to after many day trips from the East End in the 1950s. Her late husband and autistic son have not appreciated her efforts, considering them "such a lot of work." But she considers that the work has been fun, interesting and worthwhile, and she has learnt a lot about her adopted county! Her most successful books, in terms of sales, have also been the ones she has most enjoyed researching, i.e. Southend Memories (about the heyday of the city in the 1950s and 1960s), The Little Book of the East End (trivia about the area where she was brought up), and Infamous Essex Wom
