Book Description Cloth, 8vo, 199 pp, plates. "In light-hearted fashion - earnestness on this topic should be avoided, he feels - [Roy Harley Lewis] describes the field, reviewing the 'soft porn' of past centuries and our own, with extracts to show styles of writing and kinds of content. From Ovid to Henry Miller, Pepys to James Hadley Chase, is a long way: and what was acceptable to society and the censor at one time may have been considered obscene later, and then acceptable again. The strange vagaries of censorship, and their effects in the publishing of erotic books, make a good - or appalling - story in themselves. Early editions are often rare and costly, but there is scope for making an interesting and amusing collection of less scarce material. First 'modern' editions of old books, first English-language translations, early reprints, limited editions, odd little overlooked items - the search for these can be fun and yield surprising results. A list of the kind of titles and editions the would-be collector could start looking for is added; and reading this book will give plenty more ideas." - from the blurb. Elegant bookplate on front pastedown endpaper, Very Good in a dustwrapper with a sunned spine-panel. Seller Inventory # ABE-58542
