I am reading a very nice biography on Jane Austen. I was most picky in choosing this book as I love Jane very much and I want the truth, not what someone else thought she was. And nicely enough the Acknowledgements pages tell a great deal. The first parargraph sights organizations, such as the British Library, the Society of Genealogies, and the Jane Austen Memorial Trust. The following two paragraphs thanks Austen's and Lafroy's family members and other such reliable sources.
I am close to half way through and enjoying it very much. the aurther is very good about letting you the reader know what is fact, and where it came from, and what is her interpertaion! I haven't finished but as of so far I would recommend this book to any to who loves Jane.
Happy reading!
