Notes
There were huge differences between the lives of rich and poor people in Victorian times. The education children received depended on how wealthy their parents were. The poor lived in drab, unhealthy conditions and their children went to work instead of school, while the wealthy ran large houses with servants and their children had the finest education. This book describes how changes in education, improved sanitation and the latest household gadgets affected rich and poor alike.Contents
