The Victorians: A Very Short Introduction Av Professor Martin (professor Of History Professor Of History Anglia Ruskin University) Hewitt

<b>Very Short Introductions<b>: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring </b>The Victorian period may have come to an end over 120 years ago, but the Victorians continue to be a vital presence in the modern world. Contemporary Britain is still in large part Victorian in its transport networks, sewage systems, streets, and houses.
