This was fairly interesting in a history trivia sort of way - Peal has an engaging style that makes it feel like you're getting a history lesson from someone down at the pub rather than in an academic lecture. The book felt fairly meandering, though - there's no real sense of why these are the Georgians we should want to meet, or how they're connected to each other or to larger historical narratives.
