"Here are the words and music of the randy and ribald rhymes that were the favourites of the Regency bucks in the good old days before they made music hall respectable. From a treasure trove of Regency songbooks, hidden away in the British Museum, George Speaight has assembled this collection of the bawdy ballads of the 1830s."--back cover.
