Please post any background information and/or resources here.

The collection chosen is not in print, and I have not found a paper alternative (except second hand). Amazon sells a Kindle edition of Trollope's stories, but that is not an option for everyone. A few of the selected stories are available on Gutenberg, Archive.org (badly edited) or MobileRead (.pcr only), but just a few.

So, for now, I will limit myself to the tales (three in Deborah's selection) that can be found here: http://www.readbookonline.net/stories...

I easily found used copies on Amazon.com.

Not always an attractive option Deborah, given the costs of international shipping (with Book Depository's free world wide delivery new copies are usually the better deal).

Not judging attractive or not. It is an option.

I was able to find it in the library system, and requested that they send it to my local library. Only 2 copies available in the state.

Should be here in time even with the holiday this week (I hope).

That's terrible. Time to hit the picket line!

Shame on Massachusetts! :-) Everyman is right...time to protest!

Although I should probably keep quiet until I get one of the two copies in Connecticut. ;)

i'm getting along fine with the Gutenberg.org versions, they're quite short after all :-)

I easily found a used copy on Amazon so I'm all set. Just waiting to finish hosting Thanksgiving before I start :)
