She and her husband Dr Cecil Willett Cunnington assembled an extensive collection of historic dress. In preparing her illustrations for Cranford Hassall made drawings of a friend wearing period costumes from their collection enabling her to study the clothing of Gaskell's characters from original garments. The collection was subsequently acquired by Manchester Art Gallery in 1947 and formed the foundation of its Gallery of Costume at Platt Hall. Hassall's detailed wood engravings extend to the pictorial title-page binding jacket design and throughout the text.

The first biography of Charlotte Bront�. Gaskell drew together a dearth of sources including correspondence with those who knew Bront� in life to produce this admirable if unreliable biography of the author. Following an accusation of slander by living individuals portrayed unfavourably in the biography the publisher retracted the first edition and produced a second redacted edition. This edition is a useful but flawed source for Bront�'s life as Charles Kingsley wrote to Gaskell in the wake of the book's publication: 'You have had a delicate and great work to do and you have done it admirably. Be sure the book will do good. It will shame literary people into some stronger belief that a simple virtuous practical home life can be consistent with highly imaginative genius; and it will shame too the prudery of a�carefully whitewashed age into believing that purity�is quite compatible with the knowledge of evil.'
