Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) grew up in London. He inherited his
mother's ambition to write and was famously disciplined in the
development of his craft. His first novel was published in 1847
while he was working in Ireland as a surveyor for the General Post
Office. He wrote series of books set in the English countryside as
well as those set in the political life, works that show great
psychological penetration. One of his greatest strengths was his
ability to re-create in his fiction his own vision of the social
structures of Victorian England. The author of forty-seven novels,
he was one of the most prolific and respected English novelists of
the Victorian era.
