About this title

Synopsis

Alongside the world of Pride and Prejudice and the Nature poets of Constable and Nash, there also existed a pulsating underworld where crime and vice of every kind flourished. Venture into this forgotten world and discover a vivid picture of pleasure-seekers, criminals and body snatchers at work. This revised edition has a new introduction by the author, who has also re-illustrated the volume with a variety of contemporary prints, portraits and cartoons to bring the period between from 1800-1830 and its characters to life.
