Summary of Angela Steidele's Gentleman Jack

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Anne Lister was a girl who was different from the other girls at her boarding school. She wanted to learn more than was customary for girls her age, and she was called the Solomon of the school.

#2 Anne’s childhood was extremely poor. She had little money, and her father did not spend it wisely. She spent her early years in the Yorkshire Wolds, and her later years in the Ripon Girls’ School.

#3 Anne Lister was sent to Manor House School in York in 1805 or 1806, which was considered one of the best girls’ schools in the area. She was schooled in reading, writing, and arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, geography, history, and heraldry.

#4 Anne continued her Latin lessons at her own request, for eight hours a week. She did not sleep in the dormitories, but instead shared an attic room with one other girl: Eliza Raine.
