Lejeune, Anthony. The Gentlemen’s Clubs of London. Second Edition. 1984. Book is in very good minus condition; dust jacket is in very good condition—there is a tiny crease to the corners of some of the pages. Photographs by Malcolm Lewis. Foreword by His Grace, the Duke of Devonshire.
This book of photographs and text explores the great gentlemen’s clubs of London. Each is given its own chapter, which discusses the particular club’s origins, location, membership rules, famous members, and even its scandals.
