I picked the book up hoping to get more detailed information about an aspect of Regency England I know little about- I came away with some more esoteric knowledge, yes, but nothing that I would call "essential reading" or that really improved my understanding of the era. Granted, the book is only 200 pages long- it isn't an in-depth treatise by any means. But in my opinion, it also doesn't really do what the title says it should, and that disappointed me.
If you are new to Regency England and find it interesting, then I think this is a non-fiction book that would be a fun and entertaining read. But if you already have bookshelves full of books on the period like me, then I would recommend giving it a pass.
