title: The Historiography of Victorian Britain and the US Civil War
abstract: The Historiography of Victorian Britain and the US Civil War David Brown (bio) The influence of the American Civil War within British historiography, by which I refer to the historiography of the Victorian era and of the British Empire in the mid-nineteenth century, is minimal.
