This book is the outcome of years of research in Austen archives, and stems from the original family biography by W. and R. A. Austen-Leigh, Jane Austen: her Life and Letters. Jane Austen, A Family... This description may be from another edition of this product.
A literate, entertaining, complete, and unsentimentalized account of Jane Austen and her family, nuclear and extended. The Austens and the Leighs (Jane's mother's family) were both numerous and well-connected; their relationships are detailed in an unequalled series of family trees. Ms. Le Faye has written about Jane Austen many times, and knows her stuff. If I were limited to one source of information on Miss Austen, A Family Record is the one I'd pick.
