Description
The Victorians were the first truly world wide, high speed, high tech civilisation, but they are often misunderstood. Your host, Chris Fernandez-Packham, will bust popular myths, cover events around the world, and focus on a people centric history. You will see how the Victorians shaped the world, changing it from the age of horse, musket, cannon and sail to the age of steam, rifle and iron in this monthly podcast with regular special episodes and bonus content. You will learn about Queen Victoria, Charles Dickens, Volcanoes, Famines, great art, geography and so much more.
You will discover how the Victorians changed our landscapes, and mastered new energy forms that have led us to move from being a part of the natural world to shapers of it. You will learn how the modern world was created by the actions of the Victorians. You will learn how the Victorians gave birth to our modern understanding of weather, climate, history and even time and space.

one of my favorite podcasts, wonderfully detailed. There is just enough saturation to wet the interested palette for future investigations into this historically fascinating age.
Listen, I love this podcast but I'm just disappointed he never explained the actual nuts and bolts of the Congress of Vienna as he promised.
here's this super important episode about a super important event! so important that I won't talk about any of the salient details about what transpired or the effects!
Really interesting and enjoyable; well worth your time
