The teenage Jane Austen sometimes got tired of her textbooks. But instead of whining about it, she parodied them. In this episode I bring you a brief introduction followed by the full text of Jane Austen's "The History of England by a partial, prejudiced, & ignorant Historian," which is a very good description of exactly what it is. See more details and sources on the website.
