Around the Prince Regent surged a society of contrasts: evangelicalism and hedonism, elegance and brutality, exuberance and despair. Capturing the Napoleonic Wars, the rise of artists-the Shelleys, Austen, Keats, Byron, Turner-scientists and inventors-Stevenson, Davy, Faraday-and a cast of dissident journalists, military leaders, and fashionistas, Robert Morrison captivatingly illuminates the ways this period shaped the modern world. 38 black-and-white illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539123536160,"sku":"NEW0393358240","price":19.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71efx3rZlSL.jpg?v=1777485440","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-regency-years-during-which-jane-austen-writes-napoleon-fights-byron-makes-love-and-britain-becomes-modern-0393358240","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
