The famous Victorian novel by Elizabeth Gaskell (1810–1865) is considered a classic of English literature. This edition reproduces the very first translation into Russian, which was published in the journal "Russian Herald" in 1856. It preserves the unique charm of the old language from the mid-19th century and accurately conveys the atmosphere of its time.
