Editorial Review:
This is a set of some of A&E's most popular literary adaptations on DVD in one 'mega-set', as follows: Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice and Emma, A&E's Original Movie Victoria & Albert, Henry Fielding's Tom Jones, Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, R.D. Blackmore's Lorna Doone, Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe, and the Baroness D'Orczy's The Scarlet Pimpernel (Books 1, 2, & 3).
A&E Literary Classics - The Romance Collection Megaset (Pride and Prejudice / Emma / Victoria & Albert / Tom Jones / Jane Eyre / Lorna Doone / Ivanhoe / The Scarlet Pimpernel) Reviews:
As always, A&E produces the absolute best in movie renditions of literary classics! 
2009-03-17 - I have not yet had time to watch all EIGHT movies, but have watched 3 so far. Fantastic! As A&E movies always are!!! Unlike many movie makers, A&E remains true to the classic literature, never taking license with story and character. Thanks A&E.
The customer service was excellent. The product arrived just as promised in both timeliness and condition. I trust that all the DVD's will work properly, though I have not had time to view them all at present. I would recommend this product and this seller to anyone! I'm very pleased.
Classic Romances 
2009-01-21 - This was purchased as a Chritmas gift, that turned out to be a duplicate
and was retained for personal use, since it was such a bargan. It was
recieved speedily and in new conditiion.
A collection worth owning.
2008-12-10 - I waited for so long for this order to reach me....and it was really worth waiting for! A very nice collection of classic movies put together for viewing. Great movies with a great price. Thank you!!!!
Bought the set for Pride & Prejudice
2008-11-29 - Like the review title says, I bought it solely for the P&P. I hoped that the other titles would prove to be equally as entertaining and well made. If you have read the other works, you'll find them to be fairly accurate to the books and well made. A&E is known for quality programming and this set is a good one to add to any collection.
Less is more 
2008-04-16 - The Colin Firth version of P&P is probably the most popular version of P&P and is definitely what influenced me to buy this box set. Emma and Jane Eyre were also enjoyable but they weren't my favorite adaptations. As for all the other movies, I don't see myself watching them more than once. I wouldn't recommend buying this entire box set unless you have actually seen all the films already.
