This is probably the most extensive biography, bibliography, and family history of Jane Austen in one volume. Written by her descendents, it reveals a Jane Austen few outside her family had the pleasure to meet. She was lively and a favorite with her nephews and nieces as "Aunt Jane" thrilled them with impromptu fairy stories... stories unfortunately forever lost. Here is an in-depth look at her life and literature, at her admirers and even her detractors. From birth to death, Jane Austen speaks for herself through letters reflecting her brilliance and independence; the rest of the story comes from the painstaking research pieced together by the authors. Index, family trees, and footnotes included. Brought to you by Howard F.Clarke, the editor of the companion book, "A Memoir of Jane Austen: Special Edition."
