Exploring the essential characteristics of the Victorians, this book measures their achievements in many facets of their turbulent society. At the same time, it highlights their willingness to face the many debates and divisions that fragmented their culture, and their attempts to come to terms with the new world order.
Monarchy, family, Victoria's New Britain and the Gothic vision, sport, ships and trains, domestic life, death and religion, nature and landscape, interior decoration, the impact of world cultures and exoticism are all featured in this colourful snapshot of the Victorian vision of the world.
