About this audiobook

Jane Austen's Sailor Brothers is a biographical book written by Edith C. Hubback and J. H. Hubback, which explores the lives of Jane Austen's two brothers, Francis and Charles. The authors recount the brothers' service in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars and the War of 1812, drawing upon letters, journals, and other historical documents. Through their research, the authors paint a vivid picture of life in the Royal Navy during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and offer new insights into the world that shaped Jane Austen's writing. The book is a fascinating study of the people and events that shaped one of England's greatest literary figures.
