Anotace knihy

This book is an accessible guide to the Georgian era, exploring its most important aspects. Starting with the culture and style of the period and moving on to the 'movers and shakers' of the political scene, as well as looking at the growth of empire and the abolition movement, some of the key aspects of the period from 1714 to 1837 are examined. Contemporary entertainment, from the birth of the modern circus to the origins of modern sports such as cricket, billiards and squash, is explored. We learn what it was to be fashionable in the time of Beau Brummel, we see how the Georgians dined, how they relaxed and how they socialised. This book is intended for anyone interested in a century that still resonates with us today - our ideas about style and elegance are derived from Georgian ideals. It is lavishly illustrated in full colour throughout. This is the story of the world Jane Austen would have recognised.
