«Sir Harry Hotspur of Humblethwaite» is the classic novel by Anthony Trollope, published by Sutton Publishing Ltd in paperback (176 pages, in English).
After the death of his son and heir, Sir Harry Hotspur must decide in whom to place the continuation of the illustrious family name. The solution seems to lie in marrying his daughter to a cousin who will inherit the title, but the scrupulous father hesitates, fearing the young man is a reckless spendthrift. Trollope describes the vacillations of a conscientious father between dynastic duty and his daughter's welfare.
