CONFUSION OF PROPHETS by Patrick Curry
From the 1830s, horoscopic astrology staged a comeback among the urban middle-classes in England. This book examines the colourful mental and cultural underworld which exploited and created this demand, and their patrons and clients, who included sensation-seeking aristocrats.
