Description:The Victorian age was one of expansion in many areas, none more so than that of travel. With the success of explorers worldwide people's curiosity grew and the advent of the railroad in Great Britain and Ireland, which at that time was part of the United Kingdom, meant that the general public could do their own exploring. Many parts of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales that had, at one time, seemed remote were now within relatively easy travelling distance.This collection of unique polychrome colour photographs, which have never been seen before, captures many of the vistas that became so popular with Victorian holidaymakers - from the quaint and picturesque snapshots of Devon and Cornwall to the tranquillity of the Irish countryside via the beautiful coastline of Wales of the hustle and bustle of London, up to the broads of Norfolk and further north to the wild, heather-strewn hills and awe-inspiring lochs of Scotland.Many of these sites are still highly popular holiday venues and with good reason, since for the most part they have been protected for historical or environmental reasons. What they share is an abundance of charm and character and, in the cases of those rural and coastal locations, a measure of peace and tranquillity.Accompanied by informative, and often thought-provoking captions, thjese pictures will transport the reader back to a time when the pace of life was, for all its new inventions, a little calmer and more leisurely. 'Victorian Britain & Ireland in Colour' is a thoroughly engaging window on to a bygone age that will captivate readers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
