G. Elsie Harrison

The Clue to the Brontës (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

First published in 1948, this title was written in part as response to a previous biography of Charlotte Brontë by Mrs Gaskell. The author argues that Gaskell's biography gets it all wrong. Harrison draws connections between Patrick Brontë and John Wesley. She finds Gaskell paid too much attention to gossip and did not verify her facts.
