Books with title Up and down

Have you ever been out at night, and seen the numbers of the homeless and destitute, sleeping in ragged bundles under archways and on waste land? These "no-hopers" may have reached their out-cast state in many ways - a broken home, drug addiction, trouble with the law, an unwanted pregnancy. Lee Toomey has spent several years working among the down and out, the homeless, the wanderers, those who have somehow slipped out of normal life. She creates an intensely moving picture of their lonely world, and shows how they manage to survive from day to day, sometimes with the help of hostels and welfare workers, sometimes on their own, scrounging and sleeping rough. Only by understanding the problems of the destitute will we ever be able to help them.
