This 1942 Oxford University Press edition of Barchester Towers is a petite treasure, measuring just 4" x 6". Bound in blue cloth with gold embossed lettering, it has the dignified charm of a well-kept vintage volume. Inside the front cover, a lovely map adds a thoughtful touch for readers. Purchased at a Paris thrift shop, it carries a bit of travel romance along with its literary pedigree.
The book is in good condition for its age, with gentle wear but a sturdy spine and clean pages.
One of Trollope’s best-loved works, Barchester Towers is the second in the Chronicles of Barsetshire—a series that captured nineteenth-century provincial England with wit, worldly wisdom, and an unmatched gift for character. A wonderful addition to any classic literature collection.
