Uproar! Satire, Scandal and Printmakers in Georgian London by Alice Loxton

4.5

A fascinating glimpse into the satirical press of the Georgian era. I have to admit, the Georgian era is one of my least favourite historical periods — for no reason at all, I just usually find other periods more interesting! — but I was sold on Alice’s name as I enjoy her content on TikTok and thought this would be just as engaging. Well, I was right! This book has won me over to how interesting the history of satire and caricature in Georgian Britain truly is. I found Alice’s writing to be accessible, witty and bursting with knowledge, and I’m looking forward to reading her next book.
