Lady Anna is a novel written by Anthony Trollope, first published in 1874. The book tells the story of Lady Anna, the daughter of the late Earl Lovel, who is caught in a legal battle over her inheritance. Lady Anna's mother, who was not married to the Earl, claims that her daughter is the legitimate heir to the Lovel estate, while the Earl's family argues that Lady Anna is illegitimate and should not inherit anything.As the legal battle unfolds, Lady Anna is torn between her loyalty to her mother and her love for Daniel Thwaite, a young tailor who is also involved in the case. Daniel is a self-made man who has worked hard to establish himself in society, but his low social status makes him an unlikely match for Lady Anna.The novel explores themes of class, love, and loyalty, as Lady Anna struggles to navigate the complicated world of Victorian society. Trollope's writing is known for its realism and attention to detail, and Lady Anna is no exception. The book offers a vivid portrayal of life in Victorian England, with its rigid social hierarchies and complex legal system.Overall, Lady Anna is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a window into the world of Victorian England.Not a word had been heard in Keswick of the proposed return of the old lord -- for the Earl was now an old man -- past his sixtieth year, and in truth with as many signs of age as some men bear at eighty. The life which he had led no doubt had had its allurements, but it is one which hardly admits of a hale and happy evening. Men who make women a prey, prey also on themselves. But there he was, back at Lovel Grange, and no one knew why he had come, nor whence, nor how.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
