At the peak of his career, Charles Lever (1806-1872) was one of the most successful novelists in the English language, and the only mid-nineteenth century Irish novelist to vie with Charles Dickens in terms of popularity and income. In his incisive critical study, S. P. Haddelsey charts the rise and fall of this gifted and much-maligned commentator on Irish affairs, and calls for a reappraisal of his position in the canon of Irish literature.Haddelsey, Stephen is the author of 'Charles Lever The Lost Victorian' with ISBN 9780861404209 and ISBN 0861404203.
