A vivid and immersive history of Georgian/Regency England that gives its reader a firsthand experience of life as it was truly lived during the era of Jane Austen, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the Duke of Wellington.
This is the age of Jane Austen and the Romantic poets; the paintings of John Constable and the gardens of Humphry Repton; the sartorial elegance of Beau Brummell and the poetic licence of Lord Byron; Britain’s military triumphs at Trafalgar and Waterloo; the threat of revolution and the Peterloo massacre. In the latest volume of his celebrated series of Time Traveler’s Guides, Ian Mortimer turns to what is arguably the most-loved period in British history: the Regency, or Georgian England.
A time of exuberance, thrills, frills and unchecked bad behavior, it was perhaps the last age of true freedom before the arrival of the stifling world of Victorian morality. At the same time, it was a period of transition that reflected unprecedented social, economic, and political change. And like all periods in history, it was an age of many contradictions—where Beethoven’s thundering Fifth Symphony could premier in the same year that saw Jane Austen craft the delicate sensitivities of Persuasion.
Once more, Ian Mortimer takes us on a thrilling journey to the past, revealing what people ate, drank, and wore; where they shopped and how they amused themselves; what they believed in, and what they were afraid of. Conveying the sights, sounds and smells of the Regency period, this is history at its most exciting, physical, visceral—the past not as something to be studied but as lived experience.
Mortimer’s other guides are also on Audiobook Bay.

1 country for 41 years is hardly a comprehensive guide for temporal travelers. There are in fact many other times and places, and we can’t have a separate book for each, that’s ridiculous. so while it’s a good start, i hope the author will expand it’s coverage for the next edition

The author has already selflessly transported readers to a number of discrete time zones.
Any peevish objections should be pursued with a temporal travel agency, at the correct time, and without further delay.

Kershaw is an English historian. He writes about Germany and England because he has expertise on them. He is celebrated widely and what you describe as “a good start”, I would call a lifetime of dedicated scholarship.
If you wish information about other countries or times, I suggest you consult something called “other books”.
