The Mid-Victorian Generation 1846-1886
K. Theodore Hoppen (Author)
This, the third volume to appear in the New Oxford History of England, covers the period from the repeal of the Corn Laws to the dramatic failure of Gladstone's first Home Rule Bill. Intermeshed with a detailed social and political analysis of the period, Theo Hoppen examines the influence of developments in religion, economics, science, and the arts. His magisterial study goes beyond coverage of England alone to investigate the distinct but interconnected histories of Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and the Empire abroad
