Holidays And Hard Times
As the 1870s began, Britain was enjoying an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity. The gap between rich and poor was still vast, but conditions for workers were improving and the Bank Holiday Act pioneered paid holidays. This volume looks at the events, people and stories of the 1870s through photographs that reveal the essence of those times.
