If you ever wondered what Jane Austen's Mr Darcy and his 'fellows' got up to on their numerous trips to London, read the book they would certainly have carried around ... 'Harris' List of Covent Garden Ladies' was a bestseller of the eighteenth century, shifting 250,000 copies in an age before mass consumerism. An annual 'guide book', and published at Christmas time, it detailed the names and 'specialities' of the capital's prostitutes. During its heyday,(1757-1795) 'Harris' List' was the essential accessory for any serious gentleman of pleasure. Hallie Rubenhold has collected the funniest, ruddiest, and most bizarre entries penned by Jack Harris, 'Pimp-General-of-All-England' into this mischievous little book.
