JANE AUSTEN ('and another'). — The Watsons. A novel.

Top edge spotted and just a trace of very light browning to the free endpapers. Former owner name inked to the front free endpaper.

Austen penned some 17,000 words of this novel before abandoning it, probably in early 1805 after the death of her father.
