LITCHFIELD, Conn. - Feb. 17, 2015 - PRLog -- Jane Austen - Her Life and Times covers the realities of English Society at the time of Jane Austen’s life and literary career. Performed in period costume, Trish Chambers will discuss what a woman’s life was like at that time, what was expected of her and what options were open to her. She’ll explore how Jane Austen portrayed society in her six major works, how the personalities of her heroines developed over the span of her novels and how events and experiences of her personal life are reflected in her writing as well as why her work is still so popular  today.

Trish Chambers’ unique and energetic presentation style combines humor and everyday realism in presenting the subjects she discusses. Trish is the author of Civil War Women: Their Roles and Legacies, a work of non-fiction written to document and illuminate the achievements and struggles of the women of the Civil War. She participated in the making of the Civil War movie Gods and Generals, has been a guest speaker on radio, and consulted with the History Channel about women in the Civil War.
