Elizabeth Bennet’s Tour of Derbyshire

“In that county [Derbyshire] there was enough to be seen to occupy the chief of their three weeks; and to Mrs. Gardiner it had a peculiarly strong attraction. The town where she had formerly passed some years of her life, and where they were now to spend a few days, was probably as great an object of her curiosity as all the celebrated beauties of Matlock, Chatsworth, Dovedale, or the Peak.” (Pride and Prejudice, Vol. 2, Ch. 19)
