Editorial note:

_Wives and Daughters_ was first published serially in the
_Cornhill Magazine_ from August, 1864, to January, 1866.
Elizabeth Gaskell died suddenly in November, 1865. She had
completed all but the last chapter, and in that sense the
book, which many consider her masterpiece, is unfinished.
The editor of the _Cornhill Magazine_, Frederick Greenwood,
appended his comments about Mrs. Gaskell's intentions for
the conclusion and about Mrs. Gaskell as a person. Those
comments are included at the end of this e-book. _Wives
and Daughters_ was first published in book form in 1866 by
Smith, Elder.

Both the _Cornhill_ serial and the Smith, Elder first
edition had eighteen full-page illustrations by George
du Maurier, and those are included in this e-book. The
_Cornhill_ edition also had small illustrations at the
beginning of seventeen chapters, and those too are
included. The illustrations can be seen by viewing the
HTML version of this file. See 4274-h.htm:
