Far From the Madding Crowd: The Original 1874 Edition With Illustrations

Written by Victorian England author Thomas Hardy, Far from the Madding Crowd, first published in 1874, follows the lives and relationships of the independent and strong-willed Bathsheba Everdene and the three men competing for her love as they navigate societal expectations and class differences. Gabriel Oak is a humble and honest sheep farmer, William Boldwood is a wealthy and successful landowner, and Frank Troy is a dashing, but reckless and dangerous soldier. Each have traits that draw Bathsheba to them in different ways. The novel explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations, and paints a vivid picture of rural life in 19th century England. It is considered one of Hardy's most popular and enduring works, and has been adapted into several films, television dramas and stage productions.
