Barchester Towers (Illustrated)

An epic tale of the complex intrigues that arise when a new bishop with an interfering wife is appointed in the fictional town of Barchester, Trollope’s brilliantly written novel explores the various relationships, power struggles, and love affairs with fascinating clarity. Just as gripping today as it would have been when first published well over a century ago, the book remains hugely popular and is one of the great classics of English literature. Its equally enjoyable prequel is The Warden.This meticulous edition from Heritage Illustrated Publishing is a faithful reproduction of the original text and is beautifully illustrated with a number of atmospheric historical paintings that reflect the mood of the novel and several of the original sketches that accompanied early editions.
