Shocking study amounts to a scrap-book portrait of a patch of time that was the stamping-ground of genius-eccentrics and aristocratic perverts. It was a time of dissolute monarchs and rioting mobs, of pistolling, flogging, gaming and hard drinking, and equally of wit, formality, tenderness, and literary taste. Horace Walpole, George Selwyn, Lord Hervey, The Marquis de Sade included.
