The book´s photographs, some of them very rare, illustrate every aspect of the Brontes´ lives, family, surroundings and works. Dr.Bentley was born and lived until her death in Halifax, eight miles from Haworth, and has drawn on a lifetime´s knowledge for this bio-<br/>graphy. Phyllis Bentley is the ideal narrator because she knows the suject probably better than anyone. It is an achievement that a theme so deeply felt should be so economically stated.<br/><br/> 9780500260166 9780500260166 ger 0
