Victorian Cities.

In 1837, in England and Wales, there were only five provincial cities of more than 100,000 inhabitants. By 1891 there were twenty-three. Over the same period London`s population more than doubled. In this companion volume to “Victorian People and Victorian Things”, Lord Briggs focuses on the cities of Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Middlesbrough, Melbourne (an example of a Victorian community overseas) and London, comparing and contrasting their social, political and topographical development. Full of illuminating detail, “Victorian Cities” presents a unique social, political and economic bird`s-eye view of the past.
