Splendidly Victorian

First published in 2001. The eminent historian of Victorian Britain, Walter L. Arnstein has, over the course of a career spanning more than 40 years, arguably introduced more students to British history than any other American historian. This collection of essays by some of his former students celebrates Arnstein’s inspirational teaching and writing with surveys and analyses of various aspects of the social, cultural, economic and political history of nineteenth and mid-twentieth-century Britain. This title will be of interest to students of history.
