Georgette
Heyer's Regency World
Jennifer Kloester
2005
Synopsis
A bestselling novelist since 1921, Georgette Heyer
is known across the world for her historical romances
set in Regency England. Millions of readers love the
period for its fashion, famous people and events,
and its elegant and often outrageous mayfly upper-class.
It was Georgette Heyer who created the Regency genre
of historical fiction in the 1930s and 40s with books
such as "Regency Buck and Friday's Child".
Since then, in many minds, Georgette Heyer and the
Regency have become synonymous. The ultimate, definitive
guide to Georgette Heyer's world: her heroines, her
villains and dashing heroes, the shops, clubs and
towns they frequented, the parties and seasons they
celebrated, how they ate, drank, dressed, socialized,
shopped and drove. This is an utterly delightful and
fun read, beautifully illustrated and a must-read
for any Heyer fan.

The
Private World of Georgette Heyer
Jennifer Aitken Hodge
2006 (3rd Edition, previously 1984/1985)
Synopsis
As an internationally bestselling phenomenon and queen
of the Regency Romance, Georgette Heyer is one of
the most beloved historical novelists of our time.
She's written more than fifty novels - romances, detective
stories and contemporary works of fiction - yet, her
private life was practically inaccessible to any but
her closest friends and relatives. With this classic
biography, we catch a glimpse into Georgette Heyer's
world and that of her most memorable characters. With
access to private papers and archives, Jane Aiken
Hodge reveals a formidable, energetic woman, with
an impeccable sense of style and, beyond everything,
a love for all things Regency. Lavishly illustrated
from Georgette Heyer's own research files, her family
archives and other Regency sources, complete with
extracts from her correspondence and references to
her work, this is a delight and a must-read for every
Georgette Heyer fan.
