Críticas
"It is impossible not to notice, in reading this exhaustive exploration of the technical and organizational innovations of that era, how many of what we think of as hallmarks of our age--including the breakneck pace of change--are Victorian inventions . . . "-- "Boston Globe""What a wonderful book . . . [Schlereth's] analysis of social context reveals truly profound, intangible transformations in how and where Americans spent their time during four pivotal decades . . . For a book that has no plot--no wars, no great men rising from obscurity--this is astonishingly hard to put down." -- "Booklist""A detailed, lively survey of the commonplace objects, events, experiences, products, and tastes that comprised America's Victorian culture, expressed its values, and shaped modern life . . .

All was changed, forever."-- "Washington Post Book World
