The Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain

Zusatztext

In the latest volume of his celebrated series of <i>Time Traveller's Guides</i>, Ian Mortimer turns to what is arguably the most-loved period in British history - the Regency, or Georgian England. This is the age of Jane Austen and the Romantic poets; the paintings of John Constable and the gardens of Humphry Repton. A time of exuberance, thrills, frills and unchecked bad behaviour, it was perhaps the last age of true freedom before the arrival of the stifling world of Victorian morality. <b>Conveys the sights, sounds and smells of the Regency period.</b>
