A Child Of The Jago
''A Child of the Jago'' is an 1896 novel by Arthur Morrison. Background A bestseller in its time, it recounts the brief life of Dicky Perrott, a child growing up in the "Old Jago", a fictionalisation of the Old Nichol, a slum located between Shoreditch High Street and Bethnal Green Road in the East End of London.
