Victorian Turkish Baths:their origin, development and gradual decline

Notes:

Described as an information exchange, this website was set up in 1999 and is run by Malcolm Shifrin, an historian of Turkish baths.  The website is impressively comprehensive including an enormous bibliography (which also covers baths that are not Victorian nor Turkish).  The site also includes an extensive directory of Turkish baths, a list of known Turkish bath suppliers/companies, a huge image gallery (which can be viewed by place) alongside in-depth pages about the history of Turkish baths.
