Most middle-class young women living in 19th-century England shared the same ambition: to find and marry a rich husband. But rich husbands expected rich wives.

Will charming bachelors Charles Bingley and handsome, arrogant Mr Darcy be prejudiced by their social status or will love triumph in the end?
