![The Time Travellers Guide to Regency Britain by Ian Mortimer | Review [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/E5NtLJknde0/hqdefault.jpg "The Time Travellers Guide to Regency Britain by Ian Mortimer | Review [CC]
My review of The Time Travellers Guide to Regency Britain by Ian Mortimer, a pop history book that explores everyday life in the Regency.
UPDATE:
As promised, here is my update on my communications with the publisher. After two emails (the first of which never got a reply) and two weeks, I received this response from the publisher on 6th August:
Thank you for your message about Ian Mortimer’s REGENCY BRITAIN, which Alison Davies passed to me. I’m delighted to hear that there was a great deal in the book that you enjoyed.
Thank you too for drawing attention to this passage: the issues are, of course, complex and made more so, perhaps, when writing in one era about another. We will give this very careful consideration.
