The Harmonious Bower of the Nawab of Ouenq

The Harmonious Bower of the Nawab of Ouenq is an unusually comprehensive early Victorian sex manual, originally "translated" by the explorer and roué Brigadier Foxglove Hawtrey, who reportedly came across it during his exploration of the Back Passage of the Hindu Kush. On his return to England, he privately commissioned a short print run of two thousand copies, which he sold at an exorbitant price to members of various London clubs. Hawtrey died young, but extremely rich and apparently fulfilled in

every aspect of his manhood.^{[citation needed]}
