This work records full details of all known prose novels in English first published in the British Isles from 1800-1829. It includes new discoveries, attributions to a range of novelists and the first English translations of much Continental popular fiction.

This historical bibliography offers an entirely new foundation for the literary history of the late eighteenth century and Romantic period. Examining copies of all known surviving novels and reconstructing all those lost, the volume provides full details and a new introductory account of the authorship, publication, and review of new prose novels in English, 1770-1799.
