Jane Austen Cover to Cover
200 Years of Classic Book Covers
Margaret C SullivanPostscript summary
During their 200 years Jane Austen’s novels have been released by numerous publishers and been served by a variety of cover designs. From the initial 750 print run of Sense and Sensibility by Thomas Egerton in 1811 to the collectors’ omnibuses of the 21st century, this history of the books’ publication centres on their jackets and reproduces a wide array of examples, including George Allen’s elaborate 1894 Peacock Edition of Pride and Prejudice as well as modern versions featuring the stars of screen adaptations. Slightly off-mint and felt-tip mark on upper or lower trimmed edge.
