Editorial Review:
Description
When Jane Austen, the daughter of a country clergyman, was born in the picturesque village of Steventon in Hampshire in December 1775, few people could have guessed the impact she would have on the world of literature. With just six completed novels, SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, MANSFIELD PARK, EMMA, PERSUASION and NORTHANGER ABBEY, Jane Austen is one of that rare collection of classic authors to have remained popular throughout the ages. This program touches upon Jane Austen's literary abilities, and her own fascinating life at a time in England's history when Georgian elegance was at its most graceful.

Very British, Very Boring.......2007-03-14
Excellent documentary delving deeper in Austen's life!!.......2004-04-20
This DVD tours the countryside, showing places and things having to do with Jane and her life. It offers some insight into Jane's views on things, what society and life was like for her at that time, and where she would have vacationed, what she would have done, etc.
I enjoyed this very much, and I'm sure you will too! Highly recommended to any fan of Jane Austen!!
