Synopsis

Trollope fans and all who want to increase their knowledge of that great Victorian novelist will welcome this guide to the worlds he created. In alphabetical entries on the multitude of characters and places in his novels the reader can quickly find the material to follow the career of a favorite--Lady Glencora, perhaps, or Mr. Harding. Frequent use of quotation lends the authentic Trollope touch. A summary of the plot of each novel is included, as are Trollope's own estimates of his works. Maps of the geography of the novels are a delightful feature of the guide.

Originally published in 1948.

The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
