Items related to Far from the Madding Crowd
Since he lived six times as many working-days as Sundays, Oak's appearance in his old clothes was most peculiarly his own—the mental picture formed by his neighbours in imagining him being always dressed in that way. He wore a low-crowned felt hat, spread out at the base by tight jamming upon the head for security in high winds, and a coat like Dr. Johnson's; his lower extremities being encased in ordinary leather leggings and boots emphatically large, affording to each foot a roomy apartment so constructed that any wearer might stand in a river all day long and know nothing of damp—their maker being a conscientious man who endeavoured to compensate for any weakness in his cut by unstinted dimension and solidity.

Book Description paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. New York. 1984. Signet/New American Library. Reprinted Signet Classic Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0451521153. Afterword By James Wright. 384 pages. paperback. CE2115. Cover: Gustave Dore-'Ruin By The Scottish Coast'. keywords: Signet Classic England Literature Paperback 19th Century. FROM THE PUBLISHER - There is in England no more real or typical district than Thomas Hardy's imaginary Wessex, the scattered fields and farms of which were first discovered in far From the madding crowd. It is here that Gabriel Oak observes Bathsheba, the young mistress of Weatherbury Farm, fall victim to her amorous caprices. He serves her through one marriage to a handsome, corruptly sentimental sergeant. Selflessly altruistic, he sees her through another betrothal to her compulsive, puritanical neighbor - as unaware as she of the stroke of Fate that will effect their ultimate union. Published anonymously and first attributed to George Eliot, FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD won Hardy immediate success; it combines an architecturally perfect plot with the philosophical overtones that were to set the theme for all his later works. The text of this Signet Classic is set from Hardy's revised final version of FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD, published in 1912 in the authoritative Wessex edition. inventory #31093.
