Lightest wear to the book and jacket. Near fine/near fine. Clean and unmarked. First printing, full number line. "This scholarly, well-researched, well-written biography draws extensively on Trollope's autobiography as well as letters and other primary sources. It thoroughly reviews the facts of his life and his work in the post office. It is, however, primarily a discussion of Trollope as writer, providing a good background on how Trollope's own experiences gave him material for his fiction, on the circumstances of the writing and publishing of both fiction and nonfiction, and on contemporary critical reactions as well as Hall's own intelligent evaluations of Trollope's work."--Library Journal.
