Reviews

`fascinating for the way she shows how this uniquely English style of gentlemanly capitalism, epitomised by the stockbroking firm of Robert Benson, co-existed in the City alongside the more austere German work ethic of Kleinworts bank'
Mark Archer, The Sunday Telegraph
`splendid new history of KB'
Christopher Fildes, Daily Telegraph
