Established in 1894 by John Maurice Watkins, this book sellers in Cecil Court is perhaps the oldest independent specialist in mind, body and spiritual literature. If you're searching for information on the Occult and the Mystical, you may well find some of the answers here. The long standing of the shop just goes to show that there's nothing exactly 'new' about new age - we've long been fascinated by the mind, body, spirit connection.
