On his comical and satirical adventures up and down the country, the eponymous here of Dickens' "Nicholas Nickleby" confronts a large and varied cast of characters, including Wackford Squeers, the fantastic ogre of a schoolmaster, and Vincent Crummles, the grandiloquent ham actor. Punishing wickedness, befriending the helpless, strutting the stage, and falling in love, Nicholas shares some of his creator's energy and earnestness as he faces the pressing issues of early Victorian society.
Enjoy! EDIT: 15 Dec 07 Recreated the book to improve the formatting and added the 39 original illustrations by "Phiz". Uploaded v2. EDIT: 26 Dec 07 Replaced words in capitals with italics to match the printed version, as appropriate. Uploaded v3. EDIT: 6 Jan 08 Added a list of characters. Changed the formatting of the table of contents to make it less cluttered. Uploaded v4. EDIT: 19 Mar 08 Improved the layout of the book. Uploaded v5. EDIT: 22 Nov 08 Thoroughly proof-read the book and compared it against a printed edition. Hundreds of minor corrections made. The book is now in a pretty good state. Uploaded v6. EDIT: 16 Oct 09 Replaced the cover to be consistent with the rest of the MR Dickens series. Removed some errors in the HTML coding of the book - this has no impact on the reader. Uploaded v7.

Recreated the book with improved formatting. Now contains the 39 original black and white illustrations by "Phiz". This makes the book rather larger, but the increased size is, I think, more than worthwhile due to the illustrations. Uploaded v2.
