As a retired professsor of social history, I am aware and admirative of the immense research that goes into every novel. But there is one frequent puzzle to me. All the sources agree that upperclass women 1800-1820 only wore a shift as underwear. Yet some of your heroines wear ‘undergarments’. I hope you read this and will be waiting to see the result in future novels. My favourite is The Arrangement!
