These pictures illuminate the text as do the tiny drawings the Brontë children made to illustrate their imaginary worlds. In addition, there are facsimiles of their letters and diaries, paintings by artists of the day, and pictures of household life.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis beautifully illustrated book offers a unique and privileged view of the real lives of three women, writers and sisters.Juliet Gardiner is a British historian and a commentator on British social history from Victorian times through to the 1950s.
