Small 8vo. In One Volume: pp. vii, 323.
Begun in November 1868 on the conclusion of The Vicar of Bullhampton, and written on the same plan as Nina Balatka and Linda Tressel, this story was sold to Macmillan’s Magazine for £750, in which it appeared serially without any marked success. It was then sold by the proprietors to Messrs. Hurst & Blackett, who proposed bringing it out in two volume form. Trollope, however, had his own ideas as to the proper length of a volume, and persuaded them to print it in one.
A new edition was published by Macmillan & Co., London and New York, in the same year.
