The Journal of a Georgian Gentleman
It is everyday life that abounds in the diaries of Richard Hall, a sometimes pious Baptist haberdasher who kept shop at one end or other of the old London Bridge through much of the late 18th century. He recorded what he ate, what he purchased, how he slept and above all what the weather was like in obsessive detail.
I'm Fine
In 2024 a gay youth leader was jailed for 22 years. One of his victims tells why it took him two decades to call the police. In 1996, at the age of 14, Richard Hallmet a man who changed his life. Two and half decades later, he called the police. As a result, the man was jailed for 22 years. This is the story of what came before the police: how a teenage boy who had been hounded at school because he was gay walked into a world where he thought he would be safe, but which he was too inexperienced to navigate. In his naivety, he thought what happened next was normal, or somehow his fault. In a vivid, compellingly readable account, Hall recreates with unnerving frankness – and with surprising bursts of humor – the year in his childhood when the attention of older admirers went to his head, with lasting consequences for the rest of his life. I'm Fine is not just the intensely moving story of one mixed-up boy's private hell. It also stands as a powerful warning about predators operating with the impunity conferred on them by 'community' status.

Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes...
