Publisher's Synopsis

In this story Elizabeth Inchbald's avowed purpose was to show the value of "a proper education". It describes the disastrous marriage of Miss Milner, an empty-headed flirt, to Lord Elmwood, her guardian, and the effects of Miss Milner's behaviour on their daughter Matilda.

About the Publisher

Penguin Books Ltd

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
