- Henrietta Barnett in Whitechapel by Micky Watkins
-
Suburb resident Micky Watkins has written the first ever biography of Henrietta Barnett (1851-1936). Best known as the moving spirit behind the creation of Hampstead Garden Suburb, much less has been written about the first fifty years of her life. Yet, as Micky Watkins shows, the Suburb was only the final achievement of a long and varied career of social reform, much of it spent among the worst slums of London's East End.
