Title: excellent for students
Review: This is THE edition of Pride and Prejudice.I teach English, and I asked my school to order this edition for my students, and the Penguin Classics edition showed up instead. I nearly swore at the person involved. Of course I restrained myself. Somewhat.The materials in this book to aid students surpass the Penguin Classics by a mile--everything from the background material (the essay by Johnson is a must) to pictures of period fashions and architecture. Most high school students need all the help they can get, and there is no more help available in a single volume than here.As far as I know, Norton Critical has never published P&P;, but I know they'd do a good enough job to rival this. But for now, this is the edition you want, if you want to understand the book.
