HAWORTH PAST AND PRESENT: A History of Haworth, Stanbury, and Oxenhope. 20 Illustrations. 3s.

"Mr. J. Horsfall Turner has here given us a delightful little history of a place which will always have an interest for the student of English literature. We have not space to deal with it as lengthily as it deserves, but we can say that all should read it who care to know anything of the little village made memorable by the Brontë's fame. It may be obtained of the author, Idel, Leeds, and is ridiculously cheap."—Graphic, Jan. 31, 1880.
