Have you ever wondered why Mr. Collins is inheriting Longbourn in Pride and Prejudice? Well in this video we dive into entails and Regency Era inheritance practices that answer that question. We look at exactly who it was that left Elizabeth Bennet’s family’s estate to Mr. Collins. And we look at the entails in Sense and Sensibility and Jane Austen’s novel Persuasion as well.
