Bathrooms by Richard Wood

This book looks at the changing technology of baths and bathrooms through the ages. It includes information that is both fascinating and humorous - such as the Roman baths big enough for 3,200 bathers, the medieval knights who wore their spurs in the bath, and the historical incidents such as Archimedes' shriek of "Eureka!".
These stimulating books look at different parts of houses, from ancient civiisations to the modern homes of today, and provide all the facts, figures and information of a standard history book - in such an irresistably entertaining way
