Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre, Chapter 17. Our reader, Elizabeth Klett continues to rock Jane Eyre for us!

You can take a look at how good, old school muslin fabric looks, take a gander at the jane austen museum that had the cool dress, read up on the corsair/pirate coolness or get some more dirt on Bothwell (I'd say "poor guy" but I don't think he was...)
