Step back in time to discover life in London during the reign of Queen Victoria with this handy time travel guidebook

Travel back in time to Victorian London and find out all about life and culture there. Get ready to visit a cotton mill, drink coffee in one of new coffee houses and watch the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace!

Like modern travel guides, the books in this series highlight must-see features and explain local culture. Each highlighted destination contains an explanation of what took part in these areas, as well as a look at important artefacts found there providing a bigger picture of life in the past. Typical travel guide notes include, 'best time to visit', 'what to eat' and 'where to stay'. Perfect for the KS2 history curriculum, and for readers aged 7 and up.
