The Victorian age was an era that witnessed enormous changes around
Britain and affected vast swathes of the globe. It was a time of
great invention, social upheaval, medical breakthroughs, religious
fervour, brutal legislation, terrifying crimes and excessive
hypocrisy. With intriguing facts and stories, The Victorian
Treasury looks at the minutiae of everyday life, as well as the
major events that changed the world. It uncovers what it was like
to live during the time of Queen Victoria's long reign from 1837 to
1901 and reveals: * Urban legends such as Spring Heeled Jack; * The
notorious crimes of Jack the Ripper and Constance Kent; * The
building of the London Underground; * How a Victorian maid spend
her leisure time; * The experience of travelling on a steam train
for the first time.
