Autorenporträt
FANNY TROLLOPE (1779-1863) was native of England, a world traveler known as witty and intelligent, and mother to acclaimed author Anthony Trollope. An insightful trailblazer among writers of her time, Trollope penned over 100 volumes and wrote the first anti-slavery novel, Jonathan Jefferson Whitlaw (1836) which influenced Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin and published the first British industrialist novel: Michael Armstrong: Factory Boy (1840).
