About the stories

Each book is a full story, from first chapter to epilogue, read aloud on our YouTube channel and gathered here with its chapters, its first chapter to read, and the history behind it. The people are invented. The laws, prices and places around them are not.

Our stories are written with AI tools, then read and corrected by human editors, with the history checked against period sources. The narration is an AI voice, and the watercolor illustrations are made with AI, for each story only. How we make Emberley Hall.

Prefer true history? The episodes tell how life really worked between 1795 and 1901, with every source numbered.
