We all see the Victorians as a respectable, well-mannered and sober people, yet a generation before Queen Victoria ascended the throne, the British were notorious for their boisterous pastimes, plain-speaking and drunkenness. This book talks about the generation who grew up during the turmoil of the Napoleonic Wars.
