Jane Austen in the Thames Valley (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781035849291)

Discover a fresh perspective on Jane Austen in Jane Austen in Thames Valley. This book delves into Austen's lesser-known association with the Thames Valley, a connection that has received minimal attention due to scant evidence.
A significant focus of this guide is on the often-underestimated influence of Austen's mother, Cassandra Leigh. It compellingly illustrates how Mrs. Austen's impact profoundly shaped Jane Austen's outlook on life.
The Thames Valley, a region frequently overlooked in Austen studies, actually harbours numerous ties to the beloved author, more than initially apparent. This thoroughly researched and meticulously documented book unveils these connections. Accompanying the narrative are three detailed excursions designed to help readers explore and uncover the links between Jane Austen and the Thames Valley.
