Reviews
Freeman's extensive archival digging produces some truly new and fascinating understandings of a culture, a nation, and a year., 'Nicholas Freeman's entertaining and instructive book [focusses] closely on the events of 1895. He stitches together a rich tapestry of the year's incidents, debates, scandals and diversions...It is a crowded canvas, and a thought-provoking one.' The Times Literary Supplement, 1895 is a highly accessible book, written with a verve and grace that belies the immense research that was no doubt required to produce it.

Synopsis
Explores the lasting cultural and political impact of the events of this remarkable year Oscar Wilde's libel suit against the Marquess of Queensberry and its disastrous repercussions dominated British newspapers during the spring of 1895, but as this innovative study reveals, the Wilde scandal was by no means the only event to capture the public's imagination that year. Freak weather, a flu epidemic, a General Election, industrial unrest, 'sex novels' and New Women, trials of murderers and fraudsters, accidents, anarchists, bombers, balloonists and bicyclists were all topics of interest and alarm. Had Jack the Ripper returned? Did the Prime Minister have a dreadful secret? Were Aubrey Beardsley's drawings corrupting the nation's morals? Were overpaid foreign players corrupting English football? Could cricket save a degenerate nation from moral ruin?Drawing on strikingly diverse primary sources, Nicholas Freeman examines the recurrent preoccupations of a turbulent year, showing how 1890s' Britain is at once far removed from our own day and yet strangely familiar., Explores the lasting cultural and political impact of the events of this remarkable year, which included Oscar Wilde's libel suit against the Marquess of Queensberry and its disastrous repercussions., Oscar Wilde's libel suit against the Marquess of Queensberry and its disastrous repercussions dominated British newspapers during the spring of 1895, but as this innovative study reveals, the Wilde scandal was by no means the only event to capture the public's imagination.
