The Warden (The Classic Unabridged Edition): Victorian Classic by Anthony Trollo

Description: The Warden (The Classic Unabridged Edition) by Anthony Trollope The Warden concerns Mr Septimus Harding, the meek, elderly warden of Hirams Hospital and precentor of Barchester Cathedral, in the fictional county of Barsetshire. Hirams Hospital is an almshouse supported by a medieval charitable bequest to the Diocese of Barchester. The income maintains the almshouse itself, supports its twelve bedesmen, and, in addition, provides a comfortable abode and living for its warden. Mr Harding was appointed to this position through the patronage of his old friend the Bishop of Barchester, who is also the father of Archdeacon Grantly to whom Hardings older daughter, Susan, is married. The warden, who lives with his remaining child, an unmarried younger daughter Eleanor, performs his duties conscientiously... Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was one of the most successful, prolific and respected English novelists of the Victorian era. Some of his best-loved works, collectively known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, revolve around the imaginary county of Barsetshire. He also wrote perceptive novels on political, social, and gender issues, and on other topical matters. Trollopes literary reputation dipped somewhat during the last years of his life, but he regained the esteem of critics by the mid-twentieth century.
