About This Item

London : J. M. Dent , 1930. First edition. Cloth. Very Good. 8.5" by 6". None . A charming biography of Jane Austen complete with illustrations. The first edition. R. Brimley Jones was the editor of the Jane Austen Novels for the Everyman's Library editions and writer of other critical works on the author. This is a fascinating biography of Jane Austen's life created from the small amount of biographical material surrounding her life. This biography focuses on her early life, schooling, days at the Rectory, and family relationships. Including a colour frontispiece, in-text illustrations, and eight plates. Collated complete. In the original publisher's cloth. Externally very smart. Light marks to the boards. Internally firmly bound. Spotting to the text block. Spotting to the first and last pages but the pages are generally clean with the odd spot. Very Good
