A history of pets and their companions in Britain from the Victorians to today. Pet Revolution tracks the British love affair with pets over the last two centuries. As pets have entered our homes and joined our families, they have radically changed our world. Historians Jane Hamlett and Julie-Marie Strange show how the pet economy exploded--increasing the availability of pet foods, medicines, and shops--and reshaped our modern lives in the process. A history of pets and their human companions, this book reimagines the "pet revolution" as one among many other revolutions--industrial, agricultural, and political--that made possible contemporary life.
The essays in this collection explore both organizational intentions and inhabitants' experiences in a diverse range of British residential institutions during a period when such provision was dramatically increasing.
Material relations tells the story of nineteenth and early twentieth century middle-class families by exploring the domestic spaces they inhabited and the material goods they prized.
