Great stories, poor publication, Sep 20 2010
By Gnomealicious - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Cranford Chronicles - Cranford, Mr. Harrison's Confessions, My Lady Ludlow (Paperback)
I was thrilled to find these three stories published together and was riveted the entire time, a great read for fans of the BBC show as well as period literature.The stories themselves receive 5 stars, my rating is for this specific published edition only.
The book I received was a poor publication. The picture provided by Amazon was the book I received, but it was by "Seven Treasures Publications" not the publisher listed in the details. I make a point of this as this review may not apply to all copies.
The editing of this edition is terrible, enough to take you out of the book. I noticed no less than 4 instances where "conic" was written rather than "coming," and many words were swapped with their homonyms, weather/whether, soar/sore etc.
Lastly (and this is just a personal thing) I found the book too big and cumbersome, at 10" tall and nearly 7" wide, (but only 3/4" thick) it was nearly twice the size of your average book, and quite floppy for a paperback. The book is 256 pages, which would have taken at least 400 in an average sized book (for example; Cranford is 103 pages in this edition, where my individual book of Cranford is 193.) I would not have given it a bad review on that alone, but thought I would include it just for reference.

Be Conscientious of Which Edition You Purchase, April 1 2011
By An English Grad Student... But Does the World... - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Cranford Chronicles: Cranford / Mr. Harrison's Confessions / My Lady Ludlow (Paperback)
I am enjoying reading this book, but I think that it is important to note that the particular edition I purchased is very poorly published. Like another reviewer, I give the CreateSpace edition a low rating because the text is difficult to read--in fact, it is formatted as if it has been printed directly from a web page. The text is very small, and the cover is poorly attached to the book. There is no introduction or historical context, and the publisher has included no footnotes or endnotes to provide clarity.I would highly recommend that the purchaser of this book choose to buy it from another publisher, such as the Viking edition that has received such strong praise.

This review is from: The Cranford Chronicles - Cranford, Mr. Harrison's Confessions, My Lady Ludlow (Paperback)
After seeing the BBC production of "Cranford" I was anxious to read this book. This book is as engaging as the DVD.
Listmania!
