Have fun testing your knowledge of the novels of Jane Austen with the crosswords, name games and wordsearches in this book. Every answer can be found in the six novels - no fragments or juvenilia have been used.

Use your ingenuity to find the country homes, city streets and servants hidden in the wordsearch puzzles. Find the quotations to solve the crossword puzzles - there is one for each of the six novels - and play the name game to see how many of the 156 quiz questions you can answer, from the colour of Eleanor Tilney's beads to the name of Mr Darcy's mother; from the town where the Miss Musgroves went to school to the month in which Emma first saw the sea.

The Victorian line drawings, which are also puzzles, are by Hugh Thomson and Charles Brock, from editions of Jane Austen's novels published in the 1890s.

All the answers can be found at the back of the book, but if any elude you, hopefully they may prove a spur to a little rereading.
