Following a family tragedy, the home of Clara Amedroz passes to a

The story of the unscrupulous Ferdinand Lopez, who succeeds in

borough. A blackmail scandal involving Lady Glencora involves the

appears in the gutter press.
The story of a highly ambitious young politician who is offered a
pocket borough in Galway. Determined not to remain in Ireland,
although he has a secret fiancee there, he at once goes to London
where his charm and social success lead on to greater things, until
his equally swift downfall.
'Frank has but one duty before him. He must marry money.' The
squire of Greshamsbury has fallen on hard times, and it is
incumbent on his son Frank to make a good marriage. But Frank loves
the doctor's niece, Mary Thorne, a girl with no money and
mysterious parentage. He faces a terrible dilemma: should he save
the estate, or marry the girl he loves? Mary, too, has to battle
her feelings, knowing that marrying Frank would ruin his family and
fly in the face of his mother's opposition. Her pride is matched by
that of her uncle, Dr Thorne, who has to decide whether to reveal a
secret that would resolve Frank's difficulty, or to uphold the
innate merits of his own family heritage. The character of Dr
Thorne reflects Trollope's own contradictory feelings about the
value of tradition and the need for change. His subtle portrayal,
and the comic skill and gentle satire with which the story is
developed, are among the many pleasures of this delightful novel.

One of the most popular and beloved writers of the nineteenth
century, Anthony Trollope was also an insatiably curious traveler.
He was the quintessential Victorian voyager -- adventurous and
energetic, with a fine sense of humor and irony -- and his career
in the General Post Office gave him the opportunity, to travel
widely. By 1882 he had been twice around the world.
These selections from his reports on North America, the West
Indies, Australia and New Zealand, and South Africa make for
delightful reading, as fresh as when they were written. And they
reveal Trollope as a professional and enthusiastic investigator of
political, social, and economic conditions. To read his travel
writings, suggests Graham Handley, "is to become aware of the
character of the man and the qualities which make him one of the
most interesting literary personalities of his time. His enthusiasm
for life, like his enthusiasm for writing, was uncurbed to the
end."
