I'll admit I'm a bit lost with some of the authors here, so I may well have picked the wrong Thackeray or Wilkie Collins to include.
Also this has served to inform me that the most painstakingly documented literary genre of the 1850's on wikipedia is positive "plantation" novels published to counteract "Uncle Tom's Cabin". This made me angry enough to include it even though I'm sure it's horribly offensive too.
