	A Synopsis of Charles Lever's Barrington (London: Chapman and Hall, 1863)
		Although Lever suggests that George "Mad" Barrington's profligate lifestyle in India is responsible for old Peter's loss of wealth, lands, and social status, the real cause is later revealed to be not merely Peter's generally litigious nature but the lawsuit that Peter has been prosecuting ever since his son's death in Bengal a decade earlier.

		But Lever writes ut placeat pueris, and there was a tremendous fight at Rugby between two boys, the "Slogger Williams" and "Tom Brown" of the period, for the possession of "Harry Lorrequer." When an author has the boys of England on his side, he can laugh at the critics.

	Charles Lever: The Lost Victorian (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		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 popularity and earning potential.
		It is in Lever’s positive and thoughtful reaction to these criticisms that his profound contribution to Irish literature in English is to be identified, most of all, in his sensitive and ultimately pessimistic analysis of the role of the doomed Protestant ascendancy.
		Using a selection from the thirty novels and five volumes of essays, he argues that Lever’s contribution is unique in its evolution from a Tory and non-separatist stance to the near-overt and despairing advocacy of Home Rule in his final and greatest novel, Lord Kilgobbin (1872).
