Notes

Deidre Le Faye works at the British Museum. She is the author of Jane Austen: A Family Record (1989).



R. W. Chapman’s fine new edition has, among its other merits, the advantage of waking the Jane Austenite up. . . . The novels continue to live their own wonderful internal life...freshened and enriched by contact with the life of facts. His illustrations are beyond all praise.
