Jane Austen takes the advice of her brother Henry and has his lawyer William Seymour sell her Susan manuscript to the Crosby and Co. publishing place in London. It was sold to them for 10 pounds with a promise to immediately sell it. It never sold from this publishing company but was released as an upcoming book in their advertisements. It shows the difficulties Jane Austen faced selling her books even after her other work was sold successfully.
