A report on the male bisexual behaviour in the United Kingdom, 1960 to 1981 based on 6,000 explicit case-histories of heterosexual and homosexual males. Billed as Volume One, no follow up was ever published. John S. Barrington (1920-1991) was a prolific 20th century British physique photographer. Receiving a formal art training in Paris, he was also a visual artist and sculptor, and earlier in his career worked in theatre design. Barrington began picking up and photographing men at the pool, eventually going on to establish one of the most prolific physique studios of the 20th century, during which time he probably published and distributed more full male nudes than any of his contemporaries up until the changing censorship laws in the latter part of the century.
