About the book

In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, venereal disease, or the 'pox,' was a dreaded diagnosis. This remarkable history invites readers into the teeming, pox-riddled streets of everyday early modern London, uncovering the lives of the poxed elite as well as of the maidservants and prostitutes who left few words behind.
