If you want to write specifically like that, read Bronte, Austen, and other 19th century authors. It's a more verbose, grammatically complex style of prose that's not in vogue anymore. When it's done well, I personally enjoy it, but if your aspiration is to emulate that style you should be warned that to the ear of most modern English speakers it rings overly formal, if not pompous.
