Decency and Disorder by Ben Wilson
We all see the Victorians as a respectable, well-mannered and sober people, yet a generation before Queen Victoria ascended the throne, the British were notorious for their boisterous pastimes, plain-speaking and drunkenness.
Ben Wilson was born in 1980 and studied history at Pembroke College, Cambridge as an undergraduate and graduate.
The Observer said of him on the publication of his first book, THE LAUGHTER OF TRIUMPH: William Hone and the Fight for the Free Press: "Ben Wilson may only be 25, but he is already an exceptional talent."
