A Memoir of Jane Austen |
| James Edward Austen-Leigh's 'Memoir' of his aunt Jane Austen was published in 1870, over 50 years after her death. Together with the shorter recollections of James Edward's two sisters, Anna Lefroy and Caroline Austen, the 'Memoir' remains the prime authority for her life and continues to inform all subsequent accounts. | |
