Could you recommend books dealing with the history of porn? Narrative or with interviews.

Thanks.

Most of the links there have a British focus, but not all. Some deal with softcore stuff, but not all, or not entirely. Babylon Blue is a general account, though by a British author.

Of course there will be other books too, including some more recent ones with a British focus. There will be books in French like
Dictionnaire des films fran?ais pornographiques et ?rotiques 16 et 35 mm which is more like an encyclopedia of French erotic and hardcore cinema than a history, German and Italian, like Luce Rossa. La nascita e le prime fasi del cinema pornografico italiano, which has historical chapters, and DizionHard (again a dictionary or encyclopedia) which is mentioned in the Acknowledgements on the About page of this site, though I'm not sure if it is still available.

Some books on exploitation cinema will also venture into the porn field in places.

I've no doubt others can add to this.

International Exposure: Perspectives on Modern European Pornography, 1800?2000


thats very good one

the begining is boring
it contains the most popular porn studios, how they started
and explains how eastern europe espacially hungary got big in the 90s

Thanks a bunch! Keep them coming!

Any on American porn?

I've read most of one, whose name escapes me now, in the form of quotes about the American industry.

Was it this:

The Other Hollywood: The Uncensored Oral History of the Porn Film Industry
(the link is to amazon.com)

That book is fantastic!

Yea, that's the one.
