Birmingham We Lived Back to Back - The Real Story by Ted Rudge
Back-to-backs 2 or 3 stories high were built in Birmingham during the 19th century, most of these were concentrated in inner-city areas. What was it like to live in a house with one bedroom and no running water? How did eleven families share two toilets? The rise and fall of the back-to-back is a sobering tale of how our nation housed its people.
Ted Rudge was born in Birmingham at the start of the Second World War and received a secondary modern education before commencing employment at fifteen years of age. Following a working life with British Telecom, retirement brought higher education opportunities with the University of Birmingham gaining a degree in Philosophy and a Masters degree in West Midlands History. The author of three books and co-author of six more detailing the changes within Birmingham's inner districts, Rudge is happily married for over fifty years with a son, daughter and two grandchildren.
