Introduction by Gerald Warner Brace. Last novel in the Chronicles of Barsetshire. Like all of these novels, this can be read as a standalone, but it also ties up loose ends from pr ior novels in the series. An impoverished curate with a large family is suspected of a crime. The archdeacon opposes his son's love interest. Several socio-economic changes in Victorian society are dealt with, but honor and doing the right thing are the major universal themes. First published 1867. W. W. Norton. 1964. Paper. USED. $3.00 Show more
