Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition: The 1830sAuthor(s): John Gardner, David Stewart\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press, United Kingdom\nImprint: Cambridge University Press\nISBN-13: 9781009268516, 978-1009268516\nSynopsis\nThis instalment in the Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition series concerns a decade that was as technologically transitional as it was eventful on a global scale.
