Great Sexual Scandals: 4,000 years of debauchery

By Susan Crosland

John Profumo, Bill Clinton, Jeremy Thorpe... All will be remembered more for their sexual exploits than their political achievements. In time, Monica Lewinsky and Christine Kieler will be remembered for little else. Such is the power of sex and the even greater impact of the sexual scandal. Yet today's tabloid news is nothing new. From King Minos of Crete's grotesquely erotic scandal to Byron's incestuous affair with his sister, Fatty Arbuckle's infamous three-day orgy, to even more imaginative sexploits, Susan Crosland entertainingly reveals all in this compelling book that combines meticulous research with the all-seeing eyes and skills of a leading novelist.
