Austen\'s most popular novel, the unforgettable story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. DarcyFew have failed to be charmed by the witty and independent spirit of Elizabeth Bennet in Austen’s beloved classic Pride and Prejudice.

And can she fall in love, or will her pride and his prejudice against big-city girls stand in their way?

Excerpt from The Ironmaster: Or, Love and Pride At the present date the receipts from Le Maitre de Forges at the Gymnasehave exceeded one million francs, while no fewer than copies of the work in its form as a novel have already been sold in France, so that, even making due allowance for M. Emile Zola's literary triumphs, this success is altogether the most remarkable that has been achieved of recent years in the domain of fiction across the Channel. The Ironmaster is a story of admirably sustained interest, skil fully told in graceful yet forcible language. The strongly marked characters develop themselves naturally, both in their language and their actions. The book, moreover, unlike the general run of French novels, conveys a sound moral. It chastises the malice which is born of envy, and establishes the folly of that selfish pride which blinds its possessor to all consideration for the commoner clay of humanity. It shows anew how needful it is that husbands and wives alike should study each other's characters before marriage, and it enforces in convincing language the oft-repeated lesson that a woman should never trifle with the affection of the man to whom she is mated for life.

Excerpt from The Ironmaster: Or, Love and Pride At the present date the receipts from Le Maitre de Forges at the Gymnasehave exceeded one million francs, while no fewer than copies of the work in its form as a novel have already been sold in France, so that, even making due allowance for M. Emile Zola's literary triumphs, this success is altogether the most remarkable that has been achieved of recent years in the domain of fiction across the Channel. The Ironmaster is a story of admirably sustained interest, skil fully told in graceful yet forcible language. The strongly marked characters develop themselves naturally, both in their language and their actions. The book, moreover, unlike the general run of French novels, conveys a sound moral. It chastises the malice which is born of envy, and establishes the folly of that selfish pride which blinds its possessor to all consideration for the commoner clay of humanity. It shows anew how needful it is that husbands and wives alike should study each other's characters before marriage, and it enforces in convincing language the oft-repeated lesson that a woman should never trifle with the affection of the man to whom she is mated for life.
