Britain in 1859: Custom, History, Modernity
"1859 produced major works by writers including Eliot, Darwin, and Dickens, representing some of the greatest literary, political, social, and scientific achievements of the Victorian period. Examining these alongside more ephemeral publications, Gail Marshall reveals a year which was both innovatory and conflicted about how to accommodate change"-- Provided by publisher.
