The Duke's Children is a novel by the renowned British author, Anthony Trollope, first published in 1880. The novel is the sixth and final installment in his Palliser series, which follows the lives of the aristocratic Palliser family and their social circle.The Duke's Children picks up where the previous novel, The Prime Minister, left off, and follows the lives of the Duke of Omnium and his five children. The novel explores the themes of love, family relationships, and the challenges of maintaining a high social status in Victorian England.The Duke's Children focuses on the lives of the Duke's three sons, Lord Silverbridge, Lord Gerald, and Lord Drummond, and their attempts to navigate the expectations of their father and society. Lord Silverbridge, the eldest son, falls in love with an American heiress, much to the disapproval of his father. Meanwhile, Lord Gerald struggles with his own romantic entanglements and Lord Drummond faces financial difficulties.Throughout the novel, Trollope explores the complex relationships between the Duke and his children, as well as the challenges faced by the younger generation as they attempt to establish their own identities in a world dominated by tradition and social hierarchy.The Duke's Children is a richly detailed and insightful novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the British aristocracy in the late 19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Victorian literature, social history, and the complexities of family relationships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
