The BBC and HBO series 'Gentleman Jack' brought Anne Lister to international attention, awakening tremendous interest in her diaries, which run to nearly five million and are partly written in her secret code. They record in intimate detail Anne's intellectual energy and her challenges to so many of society's expectations of women at the time. In 'As Good as a Marriage', the sequel to 'Female Fortune', Jill Liddington's edited transcriptions of the diaries show us Anne from 1836-38.
