This research formed the basis of his first book, City of Beasts: How animals shaped Georgian London (MUP, 2019) which he completed as a Research Associate of the Centre for Eighteenth Century Studies. In addition to human–animal interactions, his main interests lie in urban life and the world of work in Georgian Britain.
