Limehouse Nights is the greatest work of Thomas Burke, a collection of stories written about the seedy and poverty stricken district of London known as Limehouse. This classic work, originally published in 1917, is now being republished with a new introductory biography. Thomas Burke, born in Clapham, London in 1886, considered himself a true Londoner and the large majority of his writings are on the subject of everyday life in London.
