Exploring the production of English pasts, the multiplicity of their representations, and the myriad ways in which the English looked at history, she reveals how during the nineteenth century the most popular, longest-enduring, and most highly commercialized images of the past represented it as dangerous, disorderly, and violent."--BOOK JACKET ER -
