Folio Society Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen First Printing 1960

The first of Jane Austen’s novels to be completed for publication, in 1803. However, it was not published until after her death in 1817. This coming-of-age story revolves around Catherine Morland, a young and naive “heroine,” who entertains the reader on her journey to a better understanding of the world and those around her. In the course of the novel, she discovers that she differs from those other women who crave wealth or social acceptance, as instead she wishes only to have happiness supported by genuine morality
