Victorian Revolutionaries


Listen Later

Between 1760 and 1840 the Industrial Revolution caused Britain to undergo a transformation that was unprecedented in its history. However, what if a perspective on this ‘golden era’ focused on a ‘Revolution’ that happened in other ways, spanning across both sides of the Atlantic and between differing groups of people? Tracy DW encourages you to explore a different side of the House of Hanover and the Victorian era.

This podcast compliments the future publication ‘Victorian Revolutionaries - a change is gonna come.’ However, two previous podcast episodes ‘What do we know about Edward Colston?’ and ‘The Book of Negroes - how Africa came to Nova Scotia’ both provide great additional contexts to support this podcast.
