Prudence and Practicality: A Backstory to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice

By C.J. Hill

Netherfield Park is let at last And to a young man of good fortune Mrs. Bennet is not the only mother excited by the news, and the Bennet daughters are not the only ones being admonished to improve their appearance in order to be admired by the newcomer.Step back inside the delightful world of Pride and Prejudice and follow the year's events through the observations and actions of Eliza's sensible and clear-sighted friend, Miss Charlotte Lucas. Miss Lucas believes that happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance, and is under no delusion about men, marriage or money. She will accept whichever man can provide her with a comfortable home - but does entering into a practical marriage prove prudential for Miss Lucas?
