Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a sweeping yet detailed look at the culture of English society at the turn of the 20th century, honing in on its absurdity and decay. The author argues that at a time when the British Empire should have been at its zenith, the English were losing their vitality, morals, and common sense. Losing touch with their former sporting prowess and industriousness, they instead became absorbed by a love of luxury and display. The author explores these themes across many aspects of English life, including sportsmanship, employment, journalism, and family life. In doing so, the author provides a fascinating and often amusing portrait of a society undergoing rapid and profound change. This is an astute and thought-provoking portrait of English society at a decisive juncture, and a timely reminder of the importance of preserving national identity and values.
