Mr Darcys Guide to Courtship
Mr Darcys Guide to Courtship: The Secrets of Seduction from Jane Austens Most Eligible Bachelor | Emily Brand
3 posts | 5 to read
'Mr Darcy's Guide to Courtship' is no ordinary Regency courtship manual, composed as it is by a Fitzwilliam Darcy as yet unmellowed by contact with Elizabeth Bennet. Full of entirely justified pride and meticulously cultivated prejudice, Jane Austen's most famous (and most fancied) hero here reveals the secrets of his success with the opposite sex, offering hints to both ladies and gentlemen on the rules of courtship, including making oneself agreeable, identifying an appropriate partner and how to escape the unwanted attentions of rogues and fortune-hunters. *Also includes: beauty tips from Caroline Bingley, thoughts on the improper courtship techniques of Messrs Wickham and Mr Collins, reflections on spinsterhood by Miss Emma Woodhouse, and Darcy's advice to his many illustrious correspondents including Lord Byron, the Duke of Wellington and Mr Willoughby of Combe Magna.*

OMG surprise book mail from the lovely @mabell !!! 🥰

The Prawn and Prejudice seems more of a ridiculous tale. But Mr. Darcy might have some good pointers for the gents.
#PemberLittens might be jealous of these books.

And...I do not have this copy of Pride and Prejudice 🥰 This brings the #PnPCovers collection up a book!

The feather bookmark is beautiful, can‘t wait to use the washi tape, and the candy will be eaten!

Thank you thank you 😘

mabell Yay!!! I am SO excited you didn‘t have that copy of PnP yet!! 3y
LeahBergen Lovely!! 3y
CrowCAH @mabell what awesome finds you ferreted out at the thrift store! I forgot to mention, I love the holly and ivy with glitter wrapping paper; the perfect touch to the whole package! 🥰 3y

CrowCAH @LeahBergen I agree! 😊 @mabell is such a conscientious Janeite, always on the lookout for some fantastic Austen finds! 3y
mabell It was fun to find a few books for you! Thank you for the compliment on the paper! I really like that pattern too. 😊 3y
Revenge4bess Quick? Has anyone read Mansfield Park before? I haven‘t read it and I‘m not sure what to expect. 3y
CrowCAH @Revenge4bess yes. Just like Austen‘s other novels, if you read those. Same feel, different characters. There‘s misunderstandings and ultimately love triumphs. Enjoy! 3y
