Right up the Empire

by Diane Mason (Author), Andrew Selwood (Author)

Synopsis

As a keen gardener, Esmerelda couldn't wait for Gordon to explore her bloomers.

Right Up the Empire reveals that it wasn't only the British upper lip that was stiff, and that Victorian illustrators always had enough lead in their pencils...

Prim illustrations from nineteenth-century magazines such as The Boys' Own Paper and Cassell's Family Magazine are paired with raunchy captions in this hilarious romp through the naughty secrets of the British Empire.
