Biography

English novelist whose popular success concealed until long after his death the nature and extent of his literary merit. A series of books set in the imaginary English county of Barsetshire remains his best-loved and most famous work, but he also wrote convicing novels of political life, as well as studies that show great psychological penetration. One of his greatest strengths was his ability to recreate in his fiction his own vision of the social structures of Victorian England. - Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literaturemore
