| 1 | Writing Regency England: A Resource for Authors | 2023 | Jayne Davis | Buy |
Jayne Davis’s non-fiction work consists of Writing Regency England: A Resource for Authors, published in 2023. The book draws on the research Davis accumulated while writing her own Regency novels and organizes it into a practical reference guide.
The guide covers a wide range of topics relevant to fiction writers working in the period, including social hierarchies, domestic routines, travel, clothing, and food. It is designed as a quick-reference tool rather than a full history textbook, so writers can look up specific details without wading through academic sources.
For readers who enjoy Davis’s fiction, Writing Regency England offers a behind-the-scenes look at the kind of research that goes into her novels. For other Regency authors, it is a time-saving reference that pulls together information that would otherwise require digging through multiple historical sources.
