Loved it. What a delightful romp. This book has it all: unacceptable language obscene, blasphemous and slanderous, telling gestures, social climbing, bad table manners, how to walk in period dress, cross-dressing, body parts and noises, STDs. Scholarly with cites from contemporary sources yet comfortably informal in the telling. A must for readers/writers of historical novels of the period.
