The Way They Lived Then reviews all forty-seven of Anthony Trollope's novels, a little known trove of leisurely examinations of the world of nineteenth century England. Writing with the casual authority of one who has enjoyed reading these works for some forty years, Taylor Prewitt has given us a new look at this energetic writer. Trollope's novels are a hidden treasure; they provide a sly and a wry look at the world of the Victorians.
