This new addition to Palgrave Macmillan’s Author Chronologies Series details events in the lives of the Brontë sisters and their associates. Major events such as the publication of history of their works are included, and are balanced by details of Brontë domestic life. There are original discussions, in the light of chronology, of the scandal affecting the Brontë’s brother, Branwell, and the imaginary kingdoms shared by all four children.
