Illustrated throughout with black-and-white plates, this book offers a valuable selection of letters written by Charlotte Bronte from her schooldays to her death in 1855 - chosen by the editor of the complete correspondence.

In this new edition the writings of the young Brontes - Charlotte, Emily, Anne, and Branwell - are presented together for the first time.
