Britain Through The Ages

This series provides an insight into the history of the British Isles.

Designed specifically to meet the demands of history at Key Stage 2, each book is illustrated with photographs, maps and diagrams.

Victorians

During Queen Victoria's 64-yar reign, Britain became increasingly industrial, factories grew ever larger and more mechanized and the railways spread right across the land. Working conditions changed; so too did people's daily lives as education and public health slowly improved. It was during this period that the British Empire was at its largest and most powerful and, under Victoria, Britain entered the 20th century believing it was truly great.
