Cordelia
 
Price£9.00
AuthorWinston Graham
FormatHardback
PublisherWard Lock 1949
DescriptionCordelia was a mid-Victorian – a girl with a mind of hr own, a young woman of personality and charm.

This is a vivid study of her marriage and struggle to adapt herself to the disturbing circumstances of her husband’s home – and of the new romance which came to her there.

The scene is Manchester of eighty years ago – the middle class Manchester of hansom cabs and horse buses and concerts at the Free Trade Hall. But never far in the background are the cobbled streets and smoking chimneys of the mills – sources of poverty and prosperity alike – exercising their powerful influence upon the tale.
