Description: Jane Austen's the History of England by Jane Austen Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Jane Austen, author of one of the greatest romance novels of all time, Pride and Prejudice, takes her readers on a satiric tour through Englands history, from Henry IV to Charles I. Publisher Description The author of one of the greatest romance novels of all time, Pride and Prejudice, takes her readers on a satiric tour through Englands history, mercilessly exploiting the comedic potential of human foibles within British royalty. Part of Jane Austens Juvenilia of the 1790s, The History of England was written during the authors teenage years. Filled with puns and parodies, the history begins with the reign of Henry IV and concludes with the death of Charles I more than two centuries later. Originally intending it for circulation and performance among family and friends, Jane also commissioned her sister Cassandra to draw illustrations to complement her signature wit and humour. This volume includes an informative introduction providing background context, along with extensive editorial commentary. Austen fans and history buffs are sure to delight in this history written by "a partial, prejudiced, and ignorant historian." Author Biography Before her six novels turned her into one of the most recognizable authors of all time, Jane Austen was just a teenager writing to make her sister laugh. Jane spent much of her life with her sister Cassandra, who would sometimes provide illustrations to go along with Janes writings. Both sisters were unmarried and therefore spent almost all their lives together until Janes death in 1817.
