The Georgian Bawdyhouse by Emily Brand

The business of sex was a significant aspect of urban culture in Georgian England, and a visible one. This book explores what is was like to run, work in, and frequent these establishments, which ranged from filthy hovels and country inns to grand townhouse apartments. It draws from newspaper reports, political debate and bawdy pamphlets.

She has written widely on domestic and family life for a number of history and genealogy magazines and is also an author for the history society London Historians, of which she is an honorary member.
