| Description |
This is one of the most entertaining works of serious history I have read in a long time. In this copiously researched and highly readable guide to all things fun in the Victorian era, Lee Jackson takes us on a tour of gin palaces, music halls, football matches and much more besides. I heartily recommend this to anyone with an interest in both the social and economic history of this country and its people in the19th century.
24 x 16 cms, hardback, 320 pages.
