History

Europe

<p>In Bronte, Glyn Hughes brings to life the extraordinary young women who transmuted their childhood fantasies and their intense but unrequited passions into literature. Here is the tiny mill village of Haworth, the loneliness and beauty of the wild Yorkshire hills immortalized by Emily in Wuthering Heights and by Charlotte in Jane Eyre, and the fierce closeness of the four brilliant siblings. Combining his own imaginative powers with his profound knowledge of the family, Hughes masterfully reveals both the outer and inner lives of the Bronte women, their brother, and the father who outlived them all.</p>

Written as an account of a journey on foot, Millstone Grit is a captivating and impassioned evocation of the Pennine landscape, its towns, villages and wild places. Combining the poetic and the humorous, Glyn Hughes threads together personal experience, local lore, history, myth, and legendary names from a bygone age, to bring vividly to life the beauty of this remarkable region and the unique qualities of its people, past and present. 'The work of a subtle poet with the ear of a stand-up comic and the eye of the most delicate of watercolourists. It is a work of sadness and savagery... of gentle compassion... a grand book. Grand'. THE TIMES. 'It is not a guide, but captures the essence of the place so well that many readers are sure to want to travel that way themselves' YORKSHIRE POST. 'Enjoyable both verbally and visually... You can hear the brass bands, you can smell the gas and coke and you can hear the winds moaning over the moors by just looking at the magnificently gloomy and absolutely appropriate photographs' DERBYSHIRE LIFE AND COUNTRYSIDE.

"...a fifty mile walk through the industrial towns and moors of West Riding and East Lancashire...a moving biography of a place present and past...".
