Written during Jane Austen's teenage years as part of her Juvenilia of the 1790s, The History of England mercilessly exploits the comedic potential of human foibles within British royalty. Filled with puns and parodies, the history begins with the reign of Henry IV and concludes with the death of Charles I more than two centuries later. Originally intending it for circulation and performance among family and friends, Jane also commissioned her sister Cassandra to provide illustrations to complement her signature wit and humor. This volume includes an informative introduction, background context such as family trees and personal letters, and extensive editorial commentary. Austen fans and history buffs are sure to delight in this work written by "a partial, prejudiced, and ignorant historian."
