Summary

The Warden, published in 1855, is the first book in the Barchester Chronicles series.

The Warden focuses on Septimus Harding, the Warden and preceptor of Barchester Cathedral, a quiet, unassuming man who loves nothing more than his daughter, his music, and his violincello. His life is seriously disrupted by a zealous young man who sees a disparity between the monies paid out to the Warden and the monies paid out to the 12 bedesmen that live in the hospital of Barchester Cathedral as charity cases, according to Hiram's Will.
