Ruskin grew up in suburban London; in later life, he settled in the Lake District.

Thomas and Jane Welsh Carlyle moved from rural Scotland to London's Cheyne Walk.

This title focuses on writers for whom 'the centre' was a pressing concern.

Elizabeth Gaskell, like her contemporary Emily Bronte, was from the north of England, though based in Lancashire and Cheshire rather than Yorkshire.

Her first novel, Mary Barton 1848) was set in the north and was unusually realistic in its depiction of Manchester working-class life..

The three volumes that comprise a set are facsimile reproductions of contemporary biographical material.

They include letters, memoirs, poems and articles on three outstanding Victorian literary persons: John Ruskin, Elzabeth Gaskell and the Carlyles.
