Why do elephants have such big ears? What’s the difference between fog & mist? How did earthworms travel from Europe to North
...Mr Wickham turned out to be a disappointing husband in many ways, the most notable being his early demise on the battlefields of Waterloo. & so Lydia Wickham, nee Bennet, still not twenty & ever-full of an enterprising spirit, must make her fortune independently. A lesser woman, without Lydia's natural ability to flirt uproariously on the dancefloor & cheat seamlessly at the card table, would swoon in the wake of a dashing highwayman, a corrupt banker & even an amorous Royal or two. But on the hunt for a marriage that will make her rich, there's nothing that Lydia won't turn her hand to... Taking in London, Paris & Brighton, Who Needs Mr Darcy? details the charming, lively & somewhat dastardly further exploits of the youngest Bennet sister. Pride & Prejudice this isn't & Mr Darcy certainly won't be rescuing her this time.
