"The Caxtons: A Family Picture — Volume 05" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a Victorian novel first serialized in 1848-1849. The story follows the scholarly Caxton family through their quiet country life, disrupted when young Pisistratus becomes secretary to a Parliamentary leader.

Told with gentle humor and light satire, the novel marked a departure from Bulwer-Lytton's earlier melodramatic style.
