Reviews

'Absorbing... A distinguished contribution to the history of the Victorian family... Scholars and students in a host of disciplines will find A Man's Place an engrossing and indispensable work.' Victorian Studies 'This is an important book not only for its focus on men's place in the home in Victorian England but because it represents a notable turn in gender identity and historical scholarship... The propositions offered by Tosh are thoughtful and his arguments are logically made. His excellent case studies, nicely integrated into the text, enhance the readability of the work; the writing style is lucid.' Albert J. Schmidt, Journal of Social History 'His work goes beyond previous studies of masculinity, which have tended to focus on all-male environments such as the public school. This is gender history, looking at men in relationship to women, and informed by feminist scholarship on inequalities of power within the family.' Clare Midley, History Today
