Description

Love it or loathe it, the Tube is the worlds oldest underground system, frequented daily by a staggering 3 million passengers.

One Stop Short of Barking is the long awaited first book by Mecca Ibrahim: a wacky collection of knowledge, gossip, history, mirth, myth and musings of the sort that once again emphasise Londoners' abiding affection and irritation for the elderly underground railway system that keeps the capital running. Put together in cooperation with her partner in crime, the infamous Annie Mole of Going Underground fame, it has all the irony, wit and wisdom of the much loved, and visited, Going Underground web site, from bizarre drivers announcements to the new relaxed rules for buskers, this amusing book will strike a chord for regular underground users.
