Jane and the Madness of Lord Byron: Being A Jane Austen Mystery
The restorative power of the ocean brings Jane Austen and her beloved brother Henry, to Brighton after Henry s wife is lost to a long illness. But the crowded, glittering resort is far from peaceful, especially when the lifeless body of a beautiful young society miss is discovered in the bedchamber of none other than George Gordon otherwise known as Lord Byron. As a poet and a seducer of women, Byron has carved out a shocking reputation for himself but no one would ever accuse him of being capable of murder. Now it falls to Jane to pursue this puzzling investigation and discover just how mad, bad, and dangerous to know Byron truly is. And she must do so without falling victim to the charming versifier s legendary charisma, lest she, too, become a cautionary example for the ages."

'Pictures of perfection make me sick and wicked,' Jane Austen wrote to her niece Fanny Knight a few months before she died. Yet most traditional accounts of Austen's life have insisted on portraying her as just such a picture of perfection. In his 1997 biography David Nokes re-examined Austen, and presented a far richer and livelier picture of the woman who once wrote in another of her letters, 'If I am a wild beast, I cannot help it ...'.'A fine book, probably the best tribute to the genius of Jane.' Glasgow Herald'[This book] cries out to be read, not alone by fans of Jane Austen but by anyone who enjoys a great, witty, gossipy read.' Irish Times'What fun Nokes's book is.' Fay Weldon, Independent'David Nokes is assertive, energetic, opinionated, satirical, supremely confident, dramatising and gleefully splenetic.' Hermione Lee

Lady Susan a young widow flees London and arrives at the country home of her obliging brother-in-law and his suspicious wife. Soon to come - uninvited - are an eligible suitor her willful daughter her chatty confidante and a dimwitted bachelor. Lady Susan schemes but all does not go according to plan as she and her daughter become rivals for the same man."Rob Urbinati's Lady Susan captures the essence of Jane Austen's story as well as her humor. Today's women can easily understand that Lady Susan 'seduces and schemes' because she has no options - she cannot get a job or own property. The plight of a penniless widow trying to make a life for herself and her daughter is effectively conveyed with sympathy and biting wit. I enjoyed Jane Austen's Lady Susan very much!" - Carolyn Jack The Jane Austen Society of North America

Jane Saves the Canyon is the first volume in a series of children's books written by talented first-time author Shawne V. Shiflett. The book provides inspiration and tools to both children and adults who want to make a difference in their community or even in the world through a concept called WeActivism(TM). WeActivism(TM) is what can happen when we all work together to achieve a common goal. The author also explains how to get there by using a process called the 4A Formula. The book is about a true story told through a poem about Jane Garrison, an animal and environmental activist and the author's cousin and friend, who decided to save a pristine canyon called Oswit Canyon in gorgeous Palm Springs, California from being developed into hundreds of homes. Beautiful, fun, colorful illustrations help tell the story the charming poem lays out in a melodic recounting of what Jane did to accomplish this enormous task. The South Lykken Trail and Oswit Canyon are prime internationally known ecotourist destinations in Palm Springs that draw thousands annually. Development here would have removed them forever. Stopping this plan to build these homes also meant saving animals who live in the canyon like the majestic endangered Peninsular Bighorn Sheep and the cute little desert fox Through Jane's inspiring and effective leadership, the people of Palm Springs successfully came together and put their energy, time and money into a five-year effort to save this canyon. Through this and future volumes in this series of books, Shiflett seeks to shine a light on individuals who ignite and inspire such action as well as encourage her readers to get involved in the big issues they face in their own communities. She will also help this effort herself as 50% of net profits from this book will be donated to Save Oswit Canyon, Inc., the nonprofit organization Jane founded to do this work.WeActivism(TM) is the type of actionWhich occurs like a chemical reactionWhen one of us comes to the conclusionThat it takes all of us to find the solutionThe process starts inside the MEWho identifies the problems that beAnd educates us all to seeThe power of harnessing the WE
