From Diamond Skulls to Golden Handcuffs: A History of Rowe & Pitman

By Andrew Lycett

Rowe and Pitman was founded by two rowing enthusiasts in the 1890s, and developed into one of London's most sophisticated stockbrokers, before losing its independence in the 'Big Bang' a century later. Its history provides a glimpse into the way the City developed, with insights into the personalities and the environment in which it operated.
