How rich could a person be in Regency England, and what did that wealth actually look like after the candles were lit?
In this calm sleep history episode, we drift into the glittering world of the Prince Regent, Carlton House, fashionable London, old landed families, bankers, dandies, hostesses, gamblers, and creditors. Along the way, we explore how Regency wealth was built, displayed, wasted, and sometimes lost, from grand houses and silver services to gaming tables and costly social rules.
Settle in for a quiet journey through Regency England, George IV, Beau Brummell, London society, aristocratic fortunes, and the strange contrast between elegance, war, fashion, and ruin.
