I started a novel one day, only to realize something. I know very little about the living conditions of the poor and middle classes in Victorian England.
A bit of background: Edward, also called Edge, is a widower and father of two. He leads a fairly ordinary life until he happens to rescue the princess of the realm from street toughs.
I don't want it to be completely accurate (when are novels ever?) but would definitely like to know the rules before breaking them. Also, as Edge is a motorcar mechanic, any information about cars in historical times would be appreciated. (When were they invented- i.e. is "Victorian" the wrong era? How did they work? etc.)
Thanks in advance for your help.
