Secret History Of
Georgian London
£6.89
Georgian London evokes images of elegant buildings & fine art but it was also a city where prostitution was rife houses of ill repute widespread & many tens of thousands of people dependent in some way or other on the wages of sin. The sex industry was in fact a very powerful force indeed & in The Secret History of Georgian London Dan Cruickshank compellingly shows how it came to affect almost every aspect of life & culture in the capital. Examining the nature of the sex trade he offers a tantalising insight into the impact of prostitution to give us vivid portraits of some of the women who became involved in its world. & he discusses the very varied attitudes of contemporaries
- those who sympathised those who indulged & those who condemned. As he powerfully argues these women & many thousands like them not only shaped eighteenth-century London they also helped determine its future development.
