About this product
Product Information
Victorian Liverpool - the setting, indeed the hero, of this book - appalled and fascinated social commentators who took the trouble to inspect it. As well as the early sociologists and distinguished overseas visitors who came to wonder (men like Nathaniel Hawthorne and Frederick Olmsted) the city has its own articulate and opinionated reporter - Hugh Shimmin, journalist and newspaper proprietor. This book is an introduction to, commentary upon, and collection of his best journalism. Here is a Victorian shock city examined, judged and sentenced by a man with a keen journalistic eye, ferocious nonconformist beliefs, articulate and telling journalistic tales. From the grog shop to the dog fight, from the presentation of scientific experiments to the self-improving middle classes to the courts and alleys of Liverpool, virtually every aspect of Victorian urban life is here. The contemporary journalism is explained, placed into context and analyzed by the two social historians who have edited the book. This should appeal to anyone interested in 19th century urban history, and in the society and economics of life in the Victorian slum.
