Active Edwardian Women
When we think of the Edwardians, our minds immediately go to images portrayed in Downton Abbey or other images showing long skirts, heavy clothes, serving tea and having babies.
They hiked...
They boated...
They biked...
They picnicked...
They camped...
Despite being corseted and all bundled up with what today we would consider very restrictive clothing, these women were quite active, especially the Edwardians, who began to eschew the corset.
So what did they do?
They hiked...

They rode horses...
And I, for one, am awfully glad they did.
