About This Book
A history of pets and their companions in Britain from the Victorians to today. Pet Revolution tracks the British love affair with pets over the last two centuries. As pets have entered our homes and joined our families, they have radically changed our world. Historians Jane Hamlett and Julie-Marie Strange show how the pet economy explodedâincreasing the availability of pet foods, medicines, and shopsâand reshaped our modern lives in the process. A history of pets and their human companions, this book reimagines the "pet revolution" as one among many other revolutionsâindustrial, agricultural, and politicalâthat made possible contemporary life.
