What the Victorians Did for Us by Adam Hart-Davis
The Victorian era was a time of extraordinary prosperity and development in Britain. Britian was a world leader in steam engines, iron and steel production, cotton and woollen mills and international trade; an explosion of power and pride that was celebrated in the Great Exhibition of 1851. In this book, Adam Hart-Davis celebrates Victorian achievements and shows that we still live in a Victorian world.
Adam Hart-Davis was educated at Eton and Oxford. He is best known for presenting on BBC2 'What the Romans Did for Us' and 'Local Heroes'. He also presents science programmes on Radio 4.
