The Romance of Gambling in the Eighteenth-Century British Novel - Palgrave Studies in the Enlightenment, Romanticism and Cultures of Print 1st ed. 2011 edition
Jessica Richard
Gambling permeated the daily lives of eighteenth-century Britons of all classes. This book explicates the relationship between the rampant gambling in eighteenth-century England, the new forms of gambling-inspired capitalism that transformed British society, and novels that interrogate the new socio-economy of long odds and lucky breaks.
