About
"In the tradition of George Orwell's Down & Out in London & Paris, this book shows what it is like to try to live on [pound]4.10 an hour. Where can you live? What can you afford to eat? Or do in the evening? What are the jobs - and the workmates and bosses like? Below the Breadline, in entertaining prose, sympathetic portraits and with a telling eye for detail reveals all - including the extraordinary differences across the length of Britain."--Jacket.
