Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Merry Past He who studies the records of the eighteenth century, and contrasts the life of the past with that of to-day, is of necessity impressed with the vast changes that have, within the last hundred and fifty years, entirely transformed England in its life, habits, appearance, and, above all, in its traditional characteristics. There was much about the old order of things which it is impossible to condone, but, on the other hand, in some respects England can hardly be said to have changed for the better. A comparison of the characteristics of other days with those of the present time almost conveys the impression that this country was formerly inhabited by a totally different race, which vanished, leaving scarcely a descendant to perpetuate the tradition of its ideas and ways. Thoroughly to realise the transformation which has taken place, it is necessary not only to master the great historical events of history, but also to investigate the lighter phases of life, many of which are only chronicled in the letters or ephemeral publications of the time.
