Synopsis

This facsimile collection is a reprint of the original edition of the Victorian Who's Who published in London in 1897--an extremely rare text which is not even held by the British Library. The biographical reference in two large volumes covers more than six thousand notable people from late nineteenth-century London society, including many who do not feature in other biographical sources such as the Dictionary of National Biography. It also includes non-British people and non-Western names like Meiji Emperor of Japan and Yukichi Fukuzawa. An extremely valuable source of information for any scholars studying Victorian social life and culture.
