"The Macdermots of Ballycloran" (1847) was Trollope's first novel, set in the violent Ireland of the 1830s before the Famine. This edition of the text contains supplementary notes, a chronology and an appendix containing three original chapters which Trollope later suppressed. Robert Tracy has also written "Trollope's Later Novels" and has edited "The Aran Islands and Other Writings" by John Millington Synge and Trollope's "The Way We Live Now".
