Enjoy Jane Austen in paradise and so much more at the Florida Antiquarian Book Fair in March in St. Petersburg

Jane Austen published Pride and Prejudice in 1813. More than 200 years later, it’s still a favorite among discerning readers. Will there be a copy at the Florida Antiquarian Book Fair in March?

We can’t guarantee it, of course. The myriad booksellers who exhibit at the book fair make the choices of what they bring to the book fair. But it’s highly likely you’ll find a copy or make a connection with someone who has the same passionate interest in Jane Austen and her contemporaries.

We thought it appropriate that our avid reader have a copy of Pride and Prejudice as she enjoys a glass of wine at the beach at the end of the day. It captures the allure of the Florida Antiquarian Book Fair, doesn’t it? And it’s why we say it’s a Book Lovers’ Paradise.

St. Petersburg. It’s a destination. The Sunshine City in the Sunshine State. The beach close by. Many of our fairgoers who don’t already live here turn the occasion of the Florida Antiquarian Book Fair as a reason for a vacation. Believe us. We understand completely.

This is another in our series of images highlighting the fascinating and varied selection of printed material you’ll find at the Florida Antiquarian Book Fair on Saturday and Sunday, March 1-2, 2025 at The Coliseum in downtown St. Petersburg.

Of course, there's much more to the Florida Antiquarian Book Fair than the ever-popular Jane Austen. Keep an eye out for more in the weeks leading up to the book fair.
