Book Synopsis Masculinity and the Metropolis of Vice, 1550–1650 by : A. Bailey
Book excerpt: Leading authors in the field of early modern studies explore a range of bad behaviours - like binge drinking, dicing, and procuring prostitutes at barbershops - in order to challenge the notion that early modern London was a corrupt city that ruined innocent young men.
