Description
A wide variety of written and pictorial sources provide a starting point for this exploration into the everyday life of Victorian towns. By investing the living and working conditions of both rich and poor, and by examining development in public health, education and leisure, the reader is encouraged to consider the foundations of many of the things we take for granted today.
