    About this ebook

    Wives and Daughters is a novel by Elizabeth Gaskell, first published in the Cornhill Magazine as a serial from August 1864 to January 1866. When Mrs Gaskell died suddenly in 1865, it was not quite complete, and the last section was written by Frederick Greenwood.
    The story revolves around Molly Gibson, only daughter of a widowed doctor living in a provincial English town in the 1830s.
