It is with no thought of adding to Anthony Trollope's stature as a writer that I present these long-lost articles. Prosaically factual, many of them do not have his customary grace of style and warmth of manner. Yet they are important. For Trollope's biographers these articles fill out the pattern of an eight months' trip to Australia about which virtually nothing was known. For the social historian they preserve faithfully and in minutest detail a picture of Ceylon and Australia in transition. For the economist they describe, in a concrete manner that is denied mere statistical surveys, under what circumstances of poverty and prosperity British colonists actually lived.
