Summary
"The "now" of this novel is 1870s London, and the "we" comprises a motley cast of financiers, investors, and determined social-climbers. Inspired by contemporary financial scandals, Anthony Trollope's social comedy offers a savagely satirical view of mid-Victorian England. The great storyteller's masterpiece, which centers on a Ponzi scheme involving the building of an American railroad, continues to resonate in the 21st century"--, Provided by publisher
