The Hell-Fire Clubs

Sex, Satanism and Secret Societies

by Evelyn Lord

A historical study of the eighteenth-century British and Irish clubs of aristocratic libertines known as Hell-Fire Clubs, including Sir Francis Dashwood's circle at Medmenham Abbey. Lord separates the documented record of drinking, politics and parody from later legends of devil worship.
