Product Description

Georgian London evokes images of elegant buildings and fine art, but it was also a city where prostitution was rife, houses of ill repute widespread, and many tens of thousands of people dependent in some way or other on the wages of sin. This book shows how it came to affect almost every aspect of life and culture in the capital.
