Description: Doctor Thorne by Anthony Ed Trollope Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A fine country house set in rolling acres, a handsome young master and his beautiful sweetheart. A timeless, idyllic English scene. Yet something is wrong with this perfect picture. With all its pleasing vistas, Frank Gresham's vast estate is a landscape of debt, every last piece mortgaged by a feckless father. And the only birthright of Mary Thorne, the beloved niece of the village's respected doctor, is the stigma of illegitimacy. Publisher Description Doctor Thorne (1858), the third novel in Anthony Trollopes Barsetshire series, was the best-selling of his forty-seven novels during his lifetime, and remains one of his most widely read today. Young Frank Gresham, the heir of the squire of Greshamsbury, is determined to marry his beloved Mary Thorne, niece of the village physician. Franks family is violently opposed to the match, however, for they are in debt and in danger of losing their estate, and Mary is penniless and illegitimate. Dr. Thorne, Marys loving uncle, knows a secret about her origins that would change everything, but he wants her to be accepted on her own merits. The ensuing battle of wills plays out in a maelstrom of pride and money, love and self-doubt. Though the plot is more sensational than usual for Trollope--set in motion by a seduction and a murder--these potentially melodramatic elements never disrupt the utterly compelling realism of the authors richly woven tapestry of provincial life. (Book Jacket Status: Not Jacketed) Author Biography Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was born in London to a bankrupt barrister father and a mother who, as a well-known writer, supported the family.
