Résumé
**"Lovingly-crafted and brilliantly executed ... the Highbury Trilogy is an outstanding companion and tribute to Jane Austen's Emma. Rich with comprehensive detail, thoughtful developments, and emotive prose." Austenesque Reviews.**Thirty years before the beginning of 'Emma' Mrs Bates is entirely different from the elderly, silent figure familiar to fans of Jane Austen's fourth novel. She is comparatively young and beautiful, widowed - but ready to love again.
She is the lynch-pin of Highbury society until the appalling Mrs Winwood arrives, very determined to hold sway over that ordered little town. Mrs Bates of Highbury is the first of three novels by the Readers' Favorite award winner Allie Cresswell, which trace the pre-history of Emma and then run in parallel to it.
