Borrowing a popular nineteenth-century literary form, Anthony Burton looks at Elizabeth Gaskell’s life in terms of the places she knew and loved. He visits not only Knutsford and Manchester, but also Wales, the Lake District, rural Lancashire and elsewhere, through archives, her literary locations and her letters. He also tells the story of the careful restoration of her beautiful, Grade II* listed Regency home on Plymouth Grove Manchester, now a museum celebrating her life and work.
