The Birchen Bouquet is a work of pornography first published around 1770,[1][2] reprinted in 1826 by George Cannon,[1][3] in 1860 by William Dugdale[1] and again in 1881 by William Lazenby[4] (when it was said to have been printed at Birchington-on-Sea).
[5] It consists of a compilation of flagellation stories,[1][6] mainly of women by women,[7] some taken from The Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine (Marcus notes the curious fact that some material from this fashion magazine was reprinted verbatim in pornographic works[8]).
Henry Spencer Ashbee described it as "very ordinary and insipid", expressing surprise at its frequent reprinting.
