About this book

The Crystal Palace: A Portrait of Victorian Enterprise by Patrick Beaver. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780850336221.

The Crystal Palace was built in Hyde Park to house the treasures of the world for the Great Exhibition of 1851. It became a microcosm of Victorian life, industry and leisure, reflecting every aspect of its age. Designed by Joseph Paxton as a temporary structure its success meant that when it closed it was moved to Sydenham and rebuilt.
