It is very fun to read a book written by a man telling the story of Pride and Prejudice from Darcy\\\\\\\'s point of view. This is well written, very well researched, and presents a very believable and fascinating retelling of P&P from a man\\\\\\\'s perspective. Jane Austen admitted she did not write any scenes of men alone or together where women were not present as she felt she could not express the male view. Stanley Hurd has done what Jane could not, while staying true to Jane\\\\\\\'s story, characters, and intent.
