Wow, I had no idea! Was Anne still living/aware that Charlotte was doing this? Pretty bitchy move Charlotte.

Anne was dead which is why Charlotte had control over the rights. and it's not that charlotte fought against the book for fifty years as she died a few years after Anne but just that the book was essentially lost because of her.

Thank you so much for this information! Unlike Charlotte, I quite liked The Tenant of Wildfell Hall.

I am yet to read it. But Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights are two of my favourites. So I do need to get around to it.
