About this title: The time has come to put sex back into history. Zacks delves into the archives of confessional memoirs, diaries and letters to describe the unedited version of events. He reveals the bits that history teachers leave out - the sordid truth about Abraham Lincoln - and all in the best possible taste.

"I picked this book off a friend's bookshelf. He was one of those people who buy books and display them but don't read. Isn't that ridiculous? Anyway I enjoyed this book so I sort of kept/stole it. It was just rotting there anyway, so I can claim to have rescued it.
I had no idea what a dirty piece of literature this was - and I mean that in the best possible sense. It is educational and prurient at the same time. Let's just say that I read this a number of times and leave it there!
The publication date says 1995 but I think I picked this up earlier than that. Maybe I read an earlier edition."
"This is a fascinating read. It's a collection of source material, with few interjections from the author, of love and sex, from ancient times to the early 20th century. That may sound a little dry, right until you are staring at laws from thousands of years ago, accounts of Cleopatra's plainness, Catherine the Great's young male lovers, Edgar Allan Poe's propensity for obsessive courtship, and not just one woman at a time.
You discover that Mozart was a little scatological, Casanova lost his virginity in a threesome with sisters, and a lot of adventurers had a little too much fun with the natives. While long, each of the sources are short and informative, and the only times Zacks jumps in is for clarification and background. It's great to just pick up and read about Marx's softer side before putting it down and continuing on with your day."
