Publisher's Synopsis

Sport of all kinds burgeoned in the period 1837-1914: professional sports for mass audiences were first codified and nationally organised; games for home and garden were invented and marketed; field sports occupied the aristocracy and country folk. This book shows how the Victorians and Edwardians became a nation of sportsmen - and women.
