Austen wrote Pride and Prejudice between October 1796 and August 1797. Initially titled First Impressions, the novel was submitted to the publisher Cadell who rejected it by return of post. Over the following years the novel was substantially rewritten and underwent a change of title, the latter likely precipitated by Margaret Holford's novel First Impressions, published in 1800. The copyright was eventually published by Egerton for £110 in 1812 and published in January 1813 in an edition of approximately 1,500 copies.
