Look insideHorrible Histories: Gorgeous Georgians
Fatter. Funnier. And with bigger pics. A new chunky edition: the same historical splattering of laughter, blood and gore. The gorgeous Georgians may have loved preening in mirrors and prancing about in powdered wigs and pantaloons. But don’t be fooled – they were really rotten underneath! From their sneaky schemes for hiding their stinky personal odour to the horrible hardships of the poor, find out the REAL story. Plus: Georgian schoolkids vs teachers. It’s war!
