How Did Our Garden Grow?: The History of Hatton Garden

English

By (author): Vivian Watson

Never before has the full history of Hatton Garden and its diamond and jewellery trade been revealed in such detail.

Stories of individuals who made the community what it is today and events that are usually hidden from the publics eye have been compiled by one of the Gardens best-known jewellers, Vivian Watson FGA, who joined the family business in the 1960s, becoming the third generation of his family to work there. With a unique network of contacts, he has interviewed the great and the good.

Richly illustrated from a private collection of hundreds of images and maps, this book will inform and entertain the reader on the secret world of diamonds and gems. Many will feel compelled to read it from cover to cover and others will enjoy dipping in and out.
