Description:
511pp, maroon boards with gilt lettering on cover and spine, roughcut pages, 16 illustrations by F.H Townsend. Slight wear on spine extremities, light foxing in places does not touch text block. 2 pages of advertisement in rear for other volumes. Clean copy of this reprint of Bronte's second novel originally published in 1849. Scarce in this unmarked condition. The novel is set against the backdrop of the Luddite uprisings in the Yorkshire textile industry. The novel's popularity led to Shirley's becoming a woman's name. The title character was given the name that her father had intended to give a son. Before the publication of the novel Shirley was an uncommon but distinctly male name. Today it is regarded as a distinctly female name.
