The Edwardian Period is generally extended beyond Edward’s death in 1910 to include the years up to the sinking of the RMS Titanic in 1912, the start of WWI in 1914, or often to the end of the war in 1918. The early 1900s are often regarded as a romantic Golden Age of long summer afternoons, garden parties and big hats; a social transition between the great achievements of the Victorian age, which preceded it, and the great catastrophe of the war which was to come after. This chapter in history saw the invention of the automobile, sinking of the Titanic and the first flight at Kitty Hawk. Great changes that would alter the course of our everyday lives sprang from this time period.
