A nice edition with 6 original illustrations by Edmund Dulac.

SeaWolf Press is proud to offer another book in its Illustrated Classics Collection. Each book in the collection contains the text, illustrations, and usually the cover from the first or early edition.

Drawing on her own experiences, Anne Bronte wrote her first novel out of an urgent need to inform her contemporaries about the only 'respectable' career open to them—that of a governess. Struggling with the monstrous Bloomfield children and then disdained in the superior Murray household, Agnes tells a compelling story of life as a governess in Victorian households.

This version has:

  • 6 original illustrations by Dulac.
  • A preface by Mary Sinclair.
  • Text that has been proofread to avoid errors common in other versions.
  • The complete text in an easy-to-read font similar to the original.
