Format: Paperback

Condition: Very Good — £2.02
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Louis Trevelyan, rich, remarkably handsome and intelligent, marries Emily Rowley, the beautiful and spirited daughter of the Governor of the Mandarin Islands. Apparently perfectly matched, the Trevelyans seem to be the epitome of comfortable upper middle-class Victorian values. But into their Eden comes ‘the odious destroyer of the peace of families,’ the mischievous Colonel Osborne. Accusations are made and denied, sides are taken, and the at first somewhat comical suspicion of his wife’s infidelity grows into an obsession with Trevelyan. Both humorous and tragic in turn, Trollope addresses the very topical issue of women’s rights not only by focusing on the battle of the sexes, but also by giving a sympathetic portrait of the plight of the unmarried woman.

He Knew He Was Right was first published in novel form in 1869 and is widely regarded as one of Trollope’s finest studies of character.
