With the development of steam trains and the majestic steam ships, Bertie Bristowe was able to realise his dream of traveling around the world in 1896. His diary recorded details of his adventures. Also woven into his narrative are personal accounts from a variety of other Victorian voyagers. Bertie was just one of the many people from all walks of life who could now travel for pleasure, due entirely to the advent of steam power. Virgina Bristowe has delved into the history of 19th Century travel, the destinations visited, the ships and great shipping companies. There are also contemporary photos and postcards showing images of life as it was then. The reader may experience travel in the slow lane of the 19th Century, when there was no air transport, none of the cacophany of noise and fumes from motor vehicles, no credit cards, mobile phones, or internet. Bertie's future was transformed by his experiences, when discontent with his life was replaced by eternal joy on his return home. | Travels in the Realms of Gold by Virginia Bristowe, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
