Gary Marsh No I have not read it. The Victorians left a lot of good and some not so good marks on the world especially around London. The great stations around London and the museums.The Albert Hall. All from the Victorian era!

Gary Marsh It is funny when you think these new developments came about during her reign. She was the first Queen to ride a train, use a television and to have electricity installed in the palace.
