Jane Austen's 'Sir Charles Grandison'

First published in 1980 following the discovery of the manuscript, this is the complete text of the only surviving attempt by Jane Austen to write a full-length play. Sir Charles Grandison is a light-hearted dramatization of scenes from Samuel Richardson's novel, The History of Sir Charles Grandison. Edited and annotated by respected Austen scholar Brian Southam, it also includes a foreword by Lord David Cecil.
