"Miss Blind's book is a most excellent and careful study of a great genius."—Vanity Fair.

Miss Blind has spared no pains to make a coherent and attractive narrative, and has succeeded in presenting us with a complete biography; interspersing her account with incisive criticisms."—British Quarterly Review.
Emily Brontë. By A. Mary F. Robinson.
"Miss Robinson makes the biographical part of her book of extreme interest, while her criticism of her author is just, searching, and brilliant."—Truth.

What Mrs. Gaskell did for Charlotte Brontë, Miss Robinson has with equal grace and sympathy done for her younger sister."—Manchester Courier.
"Emily Brontë is lovingly and faithfully presented both as a woman and as a writer, and the volume is one for which all lovers of literature will thank Miss Robinson, and the Editor who persuaded her to perform the task."—Derby Mercury.
