Nothing could suit Regency lifestyle better!Īnd so this book revolves around poor Sir Richard Wyndham, 29 years old, bored, jaded, extremely eligible for marriage, and yet unable to like a single woman enough to wed her. By virtue of being interested in sports – which meant boxing, hunting, riding and driving their curricles – they were muscular and well built. This also meant they had access to the best places and clubs and socialized in the best settings. These men were fashionably dressed (not necessarily Dandy’s), had interest in sporting and were generally considered good at it, were of good birth and usually rich. A Corinthian was probably the term used to denote the best that Nobility had to offer in Regency England in terms of men.
