Notes

Description
"The Small House at Allington, the fifth of the six Barsetshire Novels, introduces Trollope's most charming heroine, Lily Dale. She so endeared herself to readers of the Cornhill Magazine, where the book was first published, that Trollope was bombarded by letters begging him to marry her to her lifelong adorer Johnny Eames. Lily is the niece of Squire Dale, an embittered old bachelor entrenched in the "Great House" at Allington. His sister-in-law lives at the adjacent "Small house" with her two daughters Lily and Bell, and the action centers on the relations between the two houses and on the romantic entanglements of the two girls. We also meet Sir Raffle Buffle, the bullying head of a government department, the heartless lady Dumbello, and the shallow Adolphus Crosbie, who gets his just deserts in the form of icy lady Alexandrina de Courcy."--,Book flaps.
