Caracteristici
*Familiar to many from Hogarth prints, the squalor of life in eighteenth-century London had never before been properly documented. *The book draws on a vast range of original sources, from documentary evidence to poetry and popular prints. *It is sure to be of interest to everyone facsinated by this colourful period. Hitchcock does for eighteenth-century London what Henry Mayhew and Gustave Doré did for the nineteenth.
