To mention the names Ernst Gombrich, Nikolaus Pevsner, Victor Gollancz, Joseph Conrad, T.S. Eliot, Nancy Astor and C.L.R. James is to give but a brief glimpse of the impact immigrants to this country have made on our national culture and character. By reproducing the Times obituaries of over 100 of the most important of these, the reader is given a unique view of their contribution and it is clear how their contribution has been a determinant factor in British history.
