How would you entertain yourself without recourse to computer games, movies, television shows, streaming, or the ability to hear any music you might wish at the touch of a button? How will you communicate with those around you with no telephones? How will you cope with the rules of Victorian etiquette, which govern nearly every facet of social life? Will you have to hire servants—or might you even become one? What you need is a guide, a practical manual to help you navigate the complexities of Victorian life … in short, the book you hold in your hands, which will help ensure that you not only survive but thrive in Victorian Britain!
Moira Allen fell in love with Victorian magazines while living in England in 2007. Since then, she has collected hundreds of Victorian annuals and has posted much of their content (over 18,000 articles) on VictorianVoices.net. In this book, Allen enables the enthusiast and the researcher to explore what Victorians thought and did in their own words, and debunks many common myths about Victorian life. Allen has been writing professionally since 1979, and is the author of several books, including Starting Your Career as a Freelance Writer and Coping with Sorrow on the Loss of Your Pet. She lives in Kentucky with her husband and a tech-loving cat. Find out more about the Victorian era, and sign up for Allen’s monthly e-magazine of Victoriana, at www.victorianvoices.net.
