How we review books

We love reviewing books about the late Georgian and Regency period.

In general, we only review non-fiction books. However, we do make the occasional exception for a fiction book we consider has historical interest.

If you’d like us to consider reviewing your book, please contact us before sending it.

Because we spend so much time looking at screens for our research and writing, we prefer to have a physical copy of a book to review.

If you’ve written or published a book that you think would interest us, and you’re willing to send us a review copy - we’d love to hear from you.
