330 .. $a "An ABC of Queen Victoria's Empire offers a provocative rewriting of Mrs. Ernest Ames'
ABCs for Baby Patriots (1899). Whimsically illustrated for the nursery or primary
school child, Ames' book demonstrates how deeply imperialism reached into popular
culture during Victoria's reign. This book presents a rather darker view of Victoria's
empire, beginning with the wars in Afghanistan and ending with Zam-Zammeh, the large-bore
cannon that Kipling's hero sat astride at the opening of his 1901 novel, Kim. It signposts
some of the key events, concepts, places and people that shaped the turbulent ground
of empire across the long 19th century, providing a serious counterweight to the notion
of imperial conquest as child's play. With each letter accompanied by a crisp yet
historically nuanced account of its subject, this unique account is the perfect primer
for students taking courses on global, imperial and British history. " ; "An alphabet
of the darker side of Queen Victoria's reign, covering key events, concepts, places
and people that shaped the British empire over the long 19th century"
