Description

In 1851 an event was organised in London that changed the world: The Great Exhibition.

It was a spectacular showcase of technology manufacture and design from all over the world.

In just a few months over six million people attended the exhibition in Joseph Paxton's famous Crystal Palace in Hyde Park.

This was a landmark moment that characterised Victoria's reign, and became the model for other famous exhibitions in Chicago and Paris.

Chronicling the first exciting spectacles, through to the much-maligned Millennium Dome, the details and stories behind the great exhibitions are brought together in this fascinating read.
