Sue Wilkes' guide to daily life in the world which Jane Austen and her friends knew.

Wednesday, 18 December 2019

On the left is my latest acquisition - a lovely morning dress fashion plate from La Belle Assemblée for December 1812.

I hope to have some exciting news for you early next year.

Here's wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Sue Wilkes: I'm the author of several social history books and family history guides. My new book, Young Workers of the Industrial Age, for Pen and Sword, is out now. I'm a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. I write for adults and children. I like toast, crisp clear autumn mornings, and haunting secondhand bookshops. Je suis Européenne.
