From the age of eleven until she was eighteen, Jane Austen wrote her tales in three notebooks. The notebooks still exist – one in the Bodleian Library; the other two in the British Museum. They include among others Love and Freindship, written when Jane was fourteen, and The History of England, when she was fifteen. Written in epistolary form, like her later unpublished novella, Lady Susan, Love and Freindship is thought to be one of the tales she wrote for the amusement of her family; it was dedicated to her cousin Eliza de Feuillide, "La Comtesse de Feuillide".

Love and Freindship (the misspelling is one of many in the story) is clearly a parody of romantic novels Austen read as a child. This is clear even from the subtitle, "Deceived in Freindship and Betrayed in Love", which completely undercuts the title.

You are this day 55. If a woman may ever be said to be in safety from the determined Perseverance of disagreeable Lovers and the cruel Persecutions of obstinate Fathers, surely it must be at such a time of Life. Isabel

'Love and Friendship' and 'Lesley Castle' give farces of the upper class and the in vogue thought of sensibility of the time. 'A History of England' supplies us with an exuberant narrative of English monarchic history. Additionally incorporated into this gathering are 'The Three Sisters', 'Catharine', the arrangement of vignettes known as 'A Collection of Letters' and 'Woman Susan', an epistolary story which was as of late adjusted for the silver screen.
