Just finished reading Henry V by Dan Jones and it is such an addictive and riveting read!
I was completely fascinated by this historical figure and the author's writing is so superb that I can't wait to read more of his books!

#OnThisDay in 1813, 'Pride and Prejudice' was published, bound in three handsome volumes and priced at 18 shillings. “Buy it immediately,” playwright Richard Sheridan told a friend, adding that it was “one of the cleverest things” he had ever read.

I loved visiting Hampton Court Palace last August and I fell so in love with its history that I needed to know more. The Palace by Gareth Russell is a captivating and fascinating account and I couldn't put it down!

I’ve just finished rereading Northanger Abbey, which, together with Persuasion, is my second favourite of Jane Austen’s novels, but Pride and Prejudice will always be my number one!

Is there anything more tantalising than the promise of an early 19th-century letter with the postscript "Burn this immediately"?

It is a truth universally acknowledged that the Pride and Prejudice first edition facsimile is stunning - and also out TODAY! Read Darcy and Elizabeth's story as the first ever readers would have in 1813.
