Mr. Robinson, who was somewhat enamored of the daughter, agreed and traveled up and down the lake, but with no success.

Anthony Trollope (1815 – 1882) was an English novelist and civil servant of the Victorian era. Among his best-known works is a series of novels collectively known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, which revolves around the imaginary county of Barsetshire. He also wrote novels on political, social, and gender issues, and other topical matters.



Trollope's literary reputation dipped during the last years of his life, but he regained somewhat of a following by the mid-20th century.
