I'm working on an alternate 1830s piece, so I've been snooping around the 19th century at large, and have found some materials that will hit on that year:A History of Private Life (Volume IV): From the Fires of Revolution to the Great War by Philippe Ariés and Georges Duby (general editors.)
What Jane Austen Ate and Charles Dickens Knew: From Fox Hunting to Whist - the Facts of Daily Life in 19th-Century England by Daniel Pool
The Writer's Guide to Everyday Life in the 1800s by Marc McCutcheon
Here are some book results that came up on a search amongst the shelves of the local library, which look helpful and have been favorably reviewed:
Schnitzler's Century: The Making of Middle-Class Culture 1815-1914 by Peter Gay
Age of Progress in the Great Ages of Man Series, S.C. Burchell; the editors of Time-Life Books.
Dvorak In America: In Search of the New World by Joseph Horowitz
New York Night: The Mystique and Its History by Mark Caldwell
Fads: America's Crazes, Fevers, and Fancies from the 1890s to the 1970s by Peter L Skolnik, Laura Torbet, and Nikki Smith.
I read Jules Verne's Paris in the 20th Century and found it a good read as well as an interesting insight into that century's expectations for the future.
And lastly, there's a book called Victorian England which is part of the Rockliff New Project Series. I have the 19th Century (up to 1850) volume here, by Arthur B. Allen, but I'm not sure if the next one is by the same author or not. It's a little older series, but this volume has provided lots of good information to me.
Hope you find those helpful.
Good luck! :)
