Far From the Madding Crowd (Illustrated Edition)

* Beautifully illustrated with atmospheric paintings by renowned artists, Far From the Madding Crowd is Hardy's fourth novel and his first major success. It's a deeply moving story of the ill-fated passions of the beautiful Bathsheba and her three suitors that offers a spectacle of country life brimming with an energy and charm not customarily associated with Hardy.

* Just as accessible and enjoyable for today's readers as it would have been when first published over a century ago, the novel is one of the great works of English literature and continues to be widely read throughout the world.

* This meticulous digital edition from Heritage Illustrated Publishing is a faithful reproduction of the original text.
