News of the Times Short #75 | 1889
Typical weekly death rates and causes in Victorian England
We all know that mortality rates in Voctorian England were considerably higher than our day and age.
But what DID they die of?
This news article is a standard usual weekly tally given in the papers.
A perspective from a normal weekly death tally of what actually killed the Victorians in their day.
Hosted by Robin Coles.

Who are News of the Times?
Combining a background in Theatre, Psychology, History and English Literature, The News of the Times Team comb through archives to find stories that reflect the everyday person of the time. We look for stories that were trending, or reflect what was consuming people of the day.
We also sometimes go back to specifically look for articles which take on greater meaning from a historical standpoint. Jack the Ripper Stories, at the time known as The Whitechapel Murders, is one example.
