| Dr. Thorne belonged to a family in one sense as good, and at any rate as old, as that of Mr Gresham; and much older, he was apt to boast, than that of the De Courcys. This trait in his character is mentioned first, as it was the weakness for which he was most conspicuous. He was second cousin to Mr Thorne of Ullathorne, a Barsetshire squire living in the neighbourhood of Barchester. |

| "Dr. Thorne" is a warm performance of riches and marriage. It is one of Trollope's most popular novels. It's the story of penniless social outcasts, Mary Thorne and Frank Gresham. Who tries to save his landed family's ill fortunes by making a 'good marriage'. But his lack of pretense and his love for Mary suggests a different outcome, which can only be shown with the revelation of a secret known only to the good Dr. Thorne himself, her secret illegitimate birth. "Dr. Thorne" is the third in the series of Barsetshire novels.
