In the footsteps of Henry and Catherine, and Anne and Frederick

How much fun is this? Alert Janeite Jan sent us a link to a map of Bath on The Atlas of Fiction, with highlights of locations mentioned in Northanger Abbey and Persuasion. For instance, click on the teardrop by “Beechen Cliff” and see the explanation, “Catherine walks with the Tilneys” from NA. Jane Austen knew her Bath geography!

    I clicked on the London map, but there were no teardrops, then I clicked back to the Bath map and the teardrops had gone from there too. Does anyone know how to make them appear?

    Humph–the same thing happened to me. The direct link works…try clearing your cache.
