Such a brilliant idea! Drilling down into Victoria’s diaries Worsley gives us Victoria in all her infinite variety – queen and mother, matriarch and minx…I loved it. – Daisy Goodwin, author, and creator of ITV’s Victoria A wonderfully fresh, vivid and engaging portrait of Victoria. – Jane Ridley, author of Bertie: A Life of Edward VII Praise for Jane Austen at Home: This is my kind of history: carefully researched but so vivid that you are convinced Lucy Worsley was actually there at the party – or the parsonage. – Antonia Fraser Jane Austen at Home offers a fascinating look at Jane Austen’s world through the lens of the homes in which she lived and worked throughout her life. The result is a refreshingly unique perspective on Austen and her work and a beautifully nuanced exploration of gender, creativity, and domesticity. – Amanda Foreman A vivid portrait of Jane Austen. A must for any Austenite. – Red Magazine Brilliant and very moving, this book is a fascinating and original exploration of Jane Austen with lots of new material – Worsley brings Austen to life superbly, through her pages she is a flesh and blood woman, intelligent, powerful, contradictory, loving, loved. A magnificent book. – Kate Williams Rarely, if ever, will you encounter a historian so in command of their material. Truly, this is a dazzling exercise in persuasion, written with sense
