Victorian-era author (1810–1865) whose works detailed the lives of people in all classes of society; best known for her novel North and South. ALS signed “E. C. Gaskell,” three pages on two adjoining sheets, 4.5 x 7.25, [September 1854]. Letter to a friend. In part: “We shall be most happy to see you…for as many days as you can make it convenient to stay with us. No! I am by no means scientific; and besides having no invitation…I have no inclination for the meetings next week in Liverpool.” Period notation to reverse in another hand dates the letter to September 1854. In fine condition, with central vertical and horizontal folds and some mild soiling.
