Its manuscript was first written between 1796 and 1797, and was initially called <em>First Impressions</em>, but was never published under that title. Following revisions it was published on 28 January 1813 by the same Mr. Egerton of the Military Library, Whitehall, who had brought out <em>Sense and Sensibility</em>. Like both its predecessor and <em>Northanger Abbey</em>, it was written at Steventon Rectory.<br>(Summary from wikipedia) For more free audiobooks, or to become a volunteer reader, please visit <a href="http://librivox.org/">librivox.org</a> 2006-03-13 20:04:42 info@librivox.org librivoxbooks librivoxbooks 2006-03-13 20:09:04 2006-03-20 20:16:23 LibriVox Librivox recording of a public-domain text Jane Austen 2006-03-20 20:26:05 librivoxbooks
