Sir Alec Guinness wrote in The Daily Telegraph Magazine: "A wise man told me I would learn more about life from a great novelist than from any other source. I did not believe him. Now I wouldn't dream of going on holiday without a Trollope. He has enlarged my world."

The American Trollope Society based in New York and the British Society based in London were preceded by the Trollope Society of Philadelphia, which the noted bibliophile A. Edward Newton founded in 1929.

The London Trollope Society, which was founded in 1987 in order to see into print a complete uniform edition of Anthony Trollope's astonishing output of 47 novels, runs Annual Dinners, Christmas Parties, Garden Parties, Annual Lectures, occasional walks round Victorian London and so on.

The New York Trollope Society holds an Annual Dinner at The Knickerbocker Club on Fifth Avenue, holds Christmas parties (usually combined with a wine tasting), Annual Lectures, and other accasional events.

Both societies share the occasional publications: a quarterly magazine, Trollopiana, Compact Discs, Cassettes and other publisher's books on Trollope (see Order Form). There are a number of Reading Groups in different parts of America: Seattle has three, San Francisco one, Kansas City one, for instance.
