Description
This new publication follows one of the great British literary shrines, the Bronte Parsonage Museum in Haworth, home to Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte and their brother Branwell. Here the sisters wrote their remarkable novels, including Jane Eyre,Wuthering Heights and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall and the parsonage became a focus of literary tourism even during Charlotte's lifetime. With an illuminating introduction by Professor Ann Sumner, Executive Director of The Bronte Society, this beautifully produced book follows a major refurbishment of the parsonage, based on historical research and scientific investigation to produce a historically accurate scheme.
