The Nineteenth Century by Matthew
The Nineteenth Century describes the history of Victorian Britain not only in its political, Imperial, and economic aspects, but also in its cultural features by including chapters on women and domesticity, intellect and religion, art and architecture, and literature. The book brilliantly depicts the nations of the British Isles at the height of Britain's world power.
