Synopsis:

The autobiography of writer Anthony Trollope (1815-1882), which charts the author's unhappy youth and his progress to prosperity and social recognition, with reflections on the hard work involved in becoming a successful novelist. Edited by Michael Sadleir and Frederick Page.

From the Back Cover: Trollope was born in 1815, the product of a formidable mother and a tragically unsuccessful father who was socially ambitious for his sons. Poor, ill-dressed, awkward, and sullen, he was the victim of vicious bullying at Harrow and Winchester. But he had inherited his mother's determination, and managed later to carve out a successful career in the General Post Office while devoting every spare moment to writing. In this book, Trollope looks back on his life with some satisfaction.
