Summary:

"Ralph Newton, a handsome ne'er-do-well, has the expectation of the family property. His cousin (also Ralph Newton) is a wholly worthy fellow, but a bastard, and may not, by law, inherit what his father desperately wants to bequeath him. The situation provides Trollope with the occasion for a profound analysis of moral worth and legal right." -- cover, page [4]
