There is an excellent Google Earth documentary which shows the life and works of famous writer Jane Austen.

The collection is organised into three sections:

• the biography layer shows the actual places that she experienced over the course of her life.
• the second marks the real places in her literary works.
• the final section identifies the historical buildings used as backdrops for the major film adaptations of her books.

Austen is not my cup of tea but it is a remarkable collection nevertheless and I can see Austen fans lapping this one up.
