This is the story of Prince Eddy's alleged involvement in a Victorian cause celebre - The Cleveland Street brothel case. For the uncovering of this homosexual brothel in 1889 led to an extraordinary cover-up by the British government; a cover-up which is explicable only in the light of Prince Eddy's involvement. Working from original sources the author has written a full account of the strange life of Prince Eddy, setting it in perpective against a vivid backcloth of the astonishingly active homosexual underworld during the last decades of Queen Victoria's reign. paperback, in het Engels, herduk, 235 pagina's, afmeting 23x15 cm.
