An introduction to the history of Swiss-Italian emigrations to Britain

On my first day in London, Peter Barber, historian and head of the British Library's maps collection, gave me a brief introduction to the history of Swiss-Italian emigrations to Britain. He showed me some places where the most famous immigrants, Carlo Gatti and his nephews Agostino and Stefano Gatti, made their fortunes. (swissinfo.ch)
