Description
Part of the Chiltern Classics range.
Handsome, clever, and rich, Emma Woodhouse has many advantages— but Emma's supreme confidence in her own abilities is sometimes misplaced.

With wonderful original, detailed and embossed covers, sparkling gilt edges, cream art paper, ribbon markers, and stitched binding, they are simply the most beautiful classics ever published.
