Описание: Victoria`s Madmen is the story of those who were outcasts by temperament and choice; the non-conformists of the Victorian Age. Clive Bloom`s readable account of the dark underbelly of Victoria`s Britain captures the unrest bubbling under the surface of strait-laced Victorian society.

Описание: Although he had never set foot in Africa, Scottish poet and linguist John Leyden (1775-1811) decided to publish this `sketch` in 1799. He uses the travel narratives of writers who had ventured into the African interior, making this work a valuable collection of eighteenth-century accounts by European explorers.
