Mike RendellMike Rendell has written sixteen books, mostly about Georgian England. His interest in the period was inspired by a fascinating cache of papers left by his 18th-century ancestors. His other books with Pen & Sword include: In Bed with the Georgians; Prates & Privateers in the 18th Century; Crusoe, Castaways and Shipwrecks; Sex and Sexuality in Georgian Britain; Georgian Harlots and Whores and A Dark History of Gin. His other Pen & Sword books feature trailblazing men and women in the eighteenth century. When not writing, he talks on Georgian topics both in Britain and abroad, particularly on board cruise ships. He travels extensively, but his home is in Dorset. Read More Read Less
