Victorian Worthies, introduced by Ian Hislop, collects the very best caricatures of the leading church figures of Victorian Britain from the pages of the original Vanity Fair magazine.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    This is a wonderful book of 50 of the greatest Victorian statesmen and women of the era. Each section starts with the iconic vanity fair caricature of the individual and then the vignettes penned at the time by Jehu Junior. What follows is a concise and intelligent short review of the person, their life and what they were or weren’t well known for. This is a must have for any fan of the Victorian era, vanity fair or of the political and religious individuals that shaped an era. A perfect gift for anyone including yourself.
