Excellent condition with only minor signs of external wear. Slight scuffing on spine. Clean inside with solid binding. "Far from the Madding Crowd (1874) is Thomas Hardy's fourth novel and his first major literary success.

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 relationshipsespecially with her lonely neighbour William Boldwood, the faithful shepherd Gabriel Oak, and the thriftless soldier Sergeant Troy.
