Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Trollope said he wrote The Golden Lion of Granpere on the model of Nina Balatka and Linda Tressel , and thought it inferior to them and Sir Harry Hotspur. The Golden Lion lacks the tragic intensity of Sir Harry Hotspur. The hero of the latter is an older man who has just lost his only son, the heir to his property. Sir Harry longs to gratify the romantic dreams of Emily, the only child he has left, when Emily is attracted to Sir George Hotspur. Sir George is now Sir Harry s heir, and he would keep the property and family name together. But Sir Harry has been told George is self-seeking and mercenary. The novel tells the story of how Emily and her father slowly realise the young man is utterly without conscience or depth of feeling, while the father s vacillation in favour of George s title gives the young man time and opportunity to persuade the girl to love him.<
