XVIII, 413 pages. Folio Society number 545. Far from the Madding Crowd (1874) is Thomas Hardy's fourth novel and his first major literary success. It originally appeared anonymously as a monthly serial in Cornhill Magazine, where it gained a wide readership. The novel is the first to be set in Hardy's fictional county of Wessex in rural south west England. It deals in themes of love, honour and betrayal, against a backdrop of the seemingly idyllic, but often harsh, realities of a farming community in Victorian England. It describes the farmer Bathsheba Everdene, her life and relationships, especially with her lonely neighbour William Boldwood, the faithful shepherd Gabriel Oak, and the thriftless soldier Sergeant Troy. Folio number 545. We pack our books properly and ship daily from the UK using recycled materials where we can.…

Terms of sale
We are a small rare book dealer based in Cheltenham, in the UK. We stock, typically, less than a thousand books -- all of them chosen because they have a strong appeal to us, and we think they will appeal to others. We have ended up specialising for no particular reason than we like them, in art, antiques, aviation, music, Irish books, birds...and some fiction modern first editions! But a few other goodies have crept in as well.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
