This book explores the theme of gambling in a wide range of
nineteenth-century English novels. It examines the representation
of gambling in the novels themselves and the role that gambling
played in the lives of the individual novelists. It also considers
the significance of gambling in the novels within the wider context
of the development of Victorian society. Gambling in the
Nineteenth-Century English Novel not only provides fresh readings
of established texts within a distinctive social and cultural
context, but is also a comprehensive barometer of the social
history of the time as attitudes towards leisure change.
