Love and the English
Cleveland: World Publishing Company, 1960. first edition. hardcover. 8vo 390pp. stated first edition. from front flap: "Challenged by a Continental friend, who said that a mere article would be sufficient to cover the amorous heritage of Englishmen, Nina Epton, who last year provided us with that delightful book Love and the French, has risen to the defense of the English as lovers with admirable zest and a nice wit. Few of the individuals whose amorous behavior is described in these pages answer to the description usually applied to the English in love. Our British cousins are obviously not so staid as they first appear, if we are to judge by the bold swains and unblushing beauties who romp through this book."
