Cranford and Other Stories — Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell Paperback

Based on three Elizabeth Gaskell novels, The Cranford Chronicles follows the small absurdities and major tragedies in the lives of the people of Cranford, a small Cheshire market town, during one extraordinary year. In this witty and poignant story the railway is pushing its way relentlessly towards the town from Manchester, bringing fears of migrant workers and the breakdown of law and order. The arrival of handsome young Doctor Harrisons causes yet further agitation not just because of his revolutionary methods but also because of his effect on the hearts of the ladies. Meanwhile Miss Matty Jenkyns nurses her own broken heart after she was forced to give up the man she loved when she was a young girl.\n\nWe are sure that you will be delighted with your purchase.\n\nHowever, in the event that an issue may arise, please do not hesitate to contact us before leaving negative feedback, as we will always look to resolve any issues for you.\n\nAs the items we sell are in a used condition,.
