Description

Trollope conceived the story of the novel in Salisbury, while wandering around the cathedral one midsummer evening in the 1850s. Set in the world of the Victorian professional and landed classes which Trollope portrayed so consummately, the book centers on Mr. Harding, a clergyman of great personal integrity who is nevertheless in possession of an income from a charity far in excess of the sum devoted to the purposes of the foundation. On discovering this, young John Bold turns his reforming zeal to exposing what he regards as an abuse of priviledge, despite the fact that he is in love with Mr. Harding's daughter Eleanor.
