Newly restored from the original manuscript and nearly a third longer than the existing editions： one of the finest novels from one of the greatest English novelists is finally available in the form he intended. Anthony Trollope wrote The Duke's Children， his final Palliser novel， as a four-volume work but was required by his publisher to reduce it to three， necessitating the loss of almost a quarter of his original text： nearly 65，000 words. For Trollope， it was a meticulous， exacting， and soul-destroying process. Over the last decade several researchers， led by Steven Armanick， have painstakingly worked with the original manuscript at Yale's Beinecke Library to restore the novel to its original form. The result is richer and more complex， with a significantly different ending： a clearly superior book to the one that has always been published. We finally have the novel as Trollope wrote it， in an exclusive hardcover trade edition.Newly restored from the original manuscript and nearly a third longer than the existing editions： one of the finest novels from one of the greatest English novelists is finally available in the form he intended.
