Lascivious Bodies by Julie Peakman
From Florentine lesbian nuns to French cattle buggers Lascivious Bodies examines all sorts of sex, in all sorts of places, with all sorts of people.
"'A jolly and Informative book, nicely produced.. soundly researched and spiced with lurid details. Her descriptions bring a period of unbridled sexual appetite roaring to life.' Miranda Seymour, Sunday Times; 'Oh my. Don't I get the julcy jobs?... Every [other] sexual diversion is on display, every taboo and curlosity... Peakman is an energetic researcher... Lascivious Bodies makes today's swingers look very tame.' Edwina Currie, New Statesman"
