What Our Customers Say...

Description

Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding

The Haworth Edition. Complete in seven volumes. 

Uniformly bound in the publisher's original green cloth. 

This charming set collects the works of Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte, with introductions and insights by Clement K. Shorter, Mrs Humphry Ward, and Mrs Gaskell.

Widely recognised as some of Britain's most influential writers, the Bronte's collective works have been acclaimed as masterpieces of literature since their publications, with the sisters particularly becoming champions for female authors, who often published under male pseudonyms at the time.

This set contains the following volumes, each illustrated with a frontispiece, facsimile title page and a number of monochrome plates.

Vol I - 'Jane Eyre' by Charlotte Bronte (1902) - Nine plates

Vol II - 'Shirley' by Charlotte Bronte (1899) - Nine plates 

Vol III - 'Villette' by Charlotte Bronte (1899) - Nine plates 

Vol IV - 'The Professor' by Charlotte Bronte and Poems by Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte and the Rev Patrick Bronte (1900) - Nine plates 

Vol V - 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte and 'Agnes Grey' by Anne Bronte (1900) - Nine plates 

Vol VI - 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall' by Anne Bronte (1900) - Six plates

Vol VII - 'The Life of Charlotte Bronte' by Mrs Gaskell (1905) - Fifteen plates.
