This lighthearted but deeply researched book offers interest and
guidance to walkers, social historians and lovers of the Brontë family,
their lives and works.
Set in and around the town of Haworth it gives a dual introduction to
walkers and lovers of literature who can explore this unique area of
Yorkshire and walk in the footsteps of those who knew and loved this
town and its moorlands two hundred years ago.
With guided tours around special buildings as well as outdoor walks and
the history of people and places who lived and worked in Haworth over
centuries, it offers an insight into life and death in the melee of the
Industrial Revolution.
Its joint authors have combined their lifelong interests in Victorian
literature and social history with writing, walking, photography and
cartography and have included quotes from the Brontës' poetry and
novels.
