"The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" is about a young boy growing up along the Mississippi River.

On Christmas Eve, around 1812, Pip, an orphan who is about six years old, encounters an escaped convict in the village churchyard while visiting the graves of his mother, father, and siblings. The convict scares Pip into stealing food and a file to grind away his shackles, from the home he shares with his abusive older sister and her kind, passive husband Joe Gargery, a blacksmith.

Fanfiction for the book "Austenland" written by Shannon Hale And of the film "Austenland" (2013) directed by Jerusha Hess An almost parody of Pride and Prejudice Read as new characters are introduced to the wonderful land of Jane Austen role playing! In "Austenland" where adults pay to visit a remake of Pemberley called Pembrook Park and are surrounded by actors in a real regency immersion and even scripted romance as the ultimate vacation. Jessamym Audri is less excited for the trip. Role playing? ugh. But she might even begin to like it more than her Jane Austen fanatic best friend Elizabeth (Ella) Civil. For those who have read/watched "Austenland" before: The characters such as Henry Nobley, Amelia Heartwright, Elizabeth Charming, Colonel Andrews, Captain George East, Misses and Mister Wattlesbrook, and even Martin return for this lovely remastered version of the beloved romantic comedy with even more hidden Jane Austen surprises in the new storyline full of sassy chemistry, unexpected turns, and much more! for those who have not read/watched "Austenland": GO WATCH/READ IT!! YOU'LL LOVE IT! #Wattys2016

A guide to Regency England for readers of classic literature or historical fiction set in the early 19th century. England, as it was in the early 1800's, can sometimes be as confusing to a modern reader as travelling to a foreign country. Their clothes, manners, methods of transport, money and even some words they used can be unfamiliar to us today. I hope this book will grow into a helpful source of reference for any reader who is exploring the classic authors, like Jane Austen and Maria Edgeworth, or enjoying the wide range of early 19th century set historical stories found here at Wattpad.

The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second of five daughters of a country gentleman living near the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London.
