 Though the series is commonly referred to as a "trilogy", and the first three novels were published in a single volume, as "The Clayhanger Family", in 1925, there are actually four books.
 All four are set in the "Five Towns", Bennett's thinly disguised version of the six towns of the Potteries district that merged into the borough (later city) of Stoke-on-Trent.
 Buildings described in the novels are still identifiable in Burslem, the basis for the fictional town of "Bursley".
The Old Wives' Tale is a novel by Arnold Bennett, first published in 1908.

 It covers a period of about 70 years from roughly 1840 to 1905, and is set in Burslem and Paris.
 It is generally regarded as one of Bennett's finest works.
