Reef, Catherine The Bronte Sisters: The brief lives of
Charlotte, Emily and Anne, 190 p. Content : G. NON-FICTION
In 1821, Patrick Bronte was left with six
children younger than 7 when his wife died. A poor clergyman, he sent some of his children away to
boarding school, where they contracted consumption (tuberculosis) and died. Thus begins the history of the family
which produced Charlotte, Anne, Emily and Bramwell Bronte. Any library where any of these books or
taught or the students do any kind of biographical research can use this
book. Very detailed, very easy to
read – a new hallmark in biography standards.
