The Life of Jane Austen
Hi, everyone, and welcome back to my blog! If you read my last blog post, you already know that I love to read. The books I usually read are English literature classics, and my favourite authors lived during the nineteenth and early twentieth century. Today, I will write about one of my favourite authors, Jane Austen. By the end of this post, I hope you will be just as excited as I am about reading her novels. https://www.freeimages.com/photo/portrait-of-jane-austen-1890759 Here is the source that I used for my research: https://www.britannica.com/biography/Jane-Austen Jane Austen was born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon, a village in Hampshire, England. She was the seventh child and second daughter to Reverend George Austen, rector of Steventon and Cassandra Austen, née Leigh. Her only sister, Cassandra (who shared their mother's name), was her closest companion throughout her life. http://www.lifeafterlondon.com/hampshire-why-move-to-hampshi...
