Abstract:

The Victorian period in Britain was one of huge industrial and technological change, shocking divisions between rich and poor, sensational crimes, spectacular entertainments for the masses, and grand attempts to combat squalor and disease. Discover Victorian life through high-quality images of the posters, pamphlets, diaries, newspapers, political reports and illustrations that the 19th century left behind, now held in the British Library's collections.
