This is the first full-length study of prostitution in London
during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It is a
compelling account, exposing the real lives of the capital's
prostitutes, and also shedding light on London society as a whole,
its policing systems and its attitudes towards the female urban
poor. Drawing on the archives of London's parishes, jury records,
reports from Southwark gaol as well as other sources which have
been overlooked by historians, it provides a fascinating study for
all those interested in Georgian society.
