Charlotte Badger (with Jennifer Ashton)
Description
This season on Vulgar History, we're investigating the question How Do You Solve A Problem Like Marie Antoinette? To do so, we're looking at the lives of women who lived during the revolutionary era of the 18th century.
This week, we're headed to New Zealand (via England and Australia) to learn how the Industrial and American Revolutions contributed to the adventurous life of a convicted thief named Charlotte Badger. This week's guest is Jennifer Ashton, author of Thief, Confict, Pirate, Wife: The Many Histories of Charlotte Badger.
