The Man Who Kept His Money In A Box

Description

The Man Who Kept His Money In A Box is a novel by the renowned English author, Anthony Trollope. The story revolves around a wealthy businessman named Mr. Brown who keeps all his money in a box in his bedroom. He is known to be extremely frugal and has a reputation for being miserly. However, one day, Mr. Brown's box of money goes missing, and he is forced to reveal the secret of his wealth to his family and friends. The news of his fortune spreads quickly, and everyone begins to treat him differently. As the investigation into the missing money unfolds, Trollope explores themes of greed, jealousy, and betrayal. The characters in the novel are complex and well-developed, and the plot is full of twists and turns that keep the reader engaged until the very end. Overall, The Man Who Kept His Money In A Box is a fascinating tale of wealth, secrecy, and the human condition, and is a must-read for fans of classic English literature.As I was not myself possessed of anything of that sort, and had no intention of going to any foreign court, I could not argue the matter with her. But I assisted her in getting together an enormous pile of luggage, among which there were seven large boxes covered with canvas, such as ladies not uncommonly carry with them when travelling. That one which she represented as being smaller than the others, and as holding jewellery, might be about a yard long by a foot and a half deep.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
