The Huguenots of London

"This illustrated book details the substantial contribution Huguenot society made to London's banking and commerce, crafts and professions. It explains why London became England's principal refugee centre, and the role of the French churches. The different communities of Spitalfields and Soho are contrasted, and attitudes to the newcomer refugees and their assimilation into London society are explained."--BOOK JACKET.
