Orley Farm

by Anthony Trollope

Overview

The Great Orley Farm Case arose out of certain irregularities—and ensuing complications—in the will of Sir Joseph Mason. Did Lady Mason forge her husband's signature to the codicil bequeathing the farm to her son? Is she a criminal? Orley Farm is Trollope at his most penetrating—weighing and balancing individual hearts against English custom. Two vol. bound as one.
