Description
A Child's History of England
Author: Charles Dickens
Hard cover in very good condition. 1889
A Child's History of England by Charles Dickens is a lively and accessible retelling of English history, written with young readers in mind but rich in the author's distinctive narrative voice. Spanning from ancient times through to the reign of William and Mary, Dickens presents monarchs, battles, and political upheavals with a strong moral perspective, often highlighting injustice, tyranny, and the struggles of ordinary people. Though shaped by the biases and sensibilities of the Victorian era, the book reflects Dickens's commitment to education and social awareness, aiming to instil both knowledge and ethical reflection in his readers. It remains a fascinating glimpse into how history was interpreted and taught in 19th-century Britain.
