Son of a bankrupt landowner, Frank Gresham is intent on marrying his beloved Mary Thorne, despite her illegitimacy and apparent poverty. Frank's ambitious mother and haughty aunt are set against the match, however, and push him to save the family's mortgaged estate by making a good marriage to a wealthy heiress. Only Mary's loving uncle, Dr Thorne, knows the secret of her birth and the fortune she is to inherit that will make her socially acceptable in the eyes of Frank's family - but the high-principled doctor believes she should be accepted on her own terms. A telling examination of the relationship between society, money and morality, Dr Thorne (1858) is enduringly popular for Trollope's affectionate depiction of rural English life and his deceptively simple portrayal of human nature.

Stories of life, love, and laughter. In this storybook for adults, you will meet Silly Gunkle, Momo, Grantie, GiGi and Gramps—all adults, mind you, and all real-life characters. Phil, the storyteller, is a middle-aged pastor experienced in imparting spiritual wisdom, whose life is disrupted and forever changed by a precocious three-year-old named Naomi, his granddaughter and the book's central character. Thursdays with Naomi is a wonderfully readable reflection in which both Gramps and Naomi have something keenly important to say. It is a gift to all who have forgotten to make time lately to stand still, to laugh at themselves, or even to crazy-dance. If that's you, read this book slowly, and then listen more closely to this little child, and expect to be amazed. ------------------------------------ "This book gets four stars from me." — Dr. Tony Campolo, Professor Emeritus, Eastern University "These heartwarming, endearing, and oh-so-relatable vignettes from a pastor's relationship with his young granddaughter provide wise metaphors for how God views each of us." — Carol Kent, author, When I Lay My Isaac Down
