A good read and will now buy the paper version as I was rather disappointed that all the illustrations and notes are not very easy to access with the Kindle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating insight into Regency England

Immense detail on what daily life was really like in the late 18th ,early 19th centuries. Pride and Prejudice with the real smells , lack of toilet facilities , freezing, poorly lit rooms ,quack" doctors", short miserable lives (for most) etc etc.
A well researched ,well written book . Makes you really glad to have been born in the 20th century ...despite the wars ,pandemics etc . An excellent "lockdown " read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very detailed - great for my research
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 25, 2013

I wanted to know how my ancestors would have lived around this time and this book provides many of the answers, covering life from cradle to grave. It is very well researched, confirming things you already know from other reading and bringing together a wealth of information that I did not know. It uses quotes extensively to support the information being provided - Jane Austen herself plus the likes of Parson Woodforde and many others - which give you ideas for further reading as well as making the book very readable. I now have a much better idea of how my ancestors lived and can put this in context with my other reading.
