Mothers of the Novel Series by Pandora Press - Pre-Jane Austen Women Writers

In the 1980s, Pandora Press published "Mothers of the Novel" by Dale Spender, which discussed over 100 female writers and over 500 novels that came out in the 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries. The idea was to find out which women were prominent before Jane Austen, though some would have been her contemporaries.
Following that, they reprinted 20 of the novels mentioned in their Mothers of the Novel series. Here they are.
