En este segundo volumen de sus memorias, William Woodruff narra su llegada al East End de Londres a principios de la década de 1930. Consigue trabajo en una fundición de acero y, posteriormente, decide formarse, obteniendo un puesto en la Junta del Agua. Continúa sus estudios y finalmente gana una plaza en el Ruskin College de Oxford. El autor describe cómo un ex trabajador del acero se convirtió en académico de Oxford, así como su regreso de la guerra para conocer al hijo que nunca había visto, en una historia profundamente conmovedora.
William Woodruff was a professor of world history and author. His two autobiographical works, The Road to Nab End and its sequel Beyond Nab End, both became bestsellers in the United Kingdom. The memoirs, covering Woodruff's impoverished upbringing in an English weaving community during the Great Depression, contain significant amounts of social commentary about the conditions in which he lived.
