Though written for a general audience, The Novel, An Alternative History also provides the scholarly apparatus required by the serious student of the period.

Contributors engage with topics such as industrial culture, religion and science and the broader issues of the politics of gender, sexuality and race. The Companion includes a chronology and a comprehensive Guide to Further Reading.
