Publisher's Synopsis
The thriving Cheshire town of Cranford is on the brink of momentous
change, with the imminent arrival of the railways and the threat it
brings to the established way of life. In this glorious book, Sue
Birtwistle and Susie Conklin explain how Elizabeth Gaskell's timeless
stories were interwoven to create their dramatisation; then, join Miss
Matty and her friends for a guided tour round their bustling
neighbourhood, before discovering how the production team recreated the
costumes, landscapes and decor of an 1840s town. This beautifully
illustrated volume is redolent with the attention to detail that has
won Cranfordso many awards.
