Anthony Hope 
The King’s Mirror (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) 

This 1899 novel, of which Hope had a very high opinion, represented a change in his fictional dynamic, from a focus on adventure and intrigue to the no-less riveting dramas of internal conflict and development.  A young king learns the wisdom of self-discipline and restraint as he leads his country through troubled times.
