A Christmas Carol - Setting - Victorian London

These quotes are useful to remember for knowing the setting in the book. Victorian London was in the midst of the Industrial Revolution and so had a lot of people in poverty, and a few in power with extreme wealth. Quotes to remember: 'the clerk's fire was so very much smaller' 'that it looked like one coal' 'a perfect grove' 'dressed out but poorly in a twice-turned gown' 'conferred upon his son and heir in honour of the day'
