Synopsis

Across a boy’s life in 19th‑century England, a restless mind learns courage, doubt, and belief. This memoir excerpt follows the author from early memories in Colchester and Bedford to formative experiences with school, family, and faith. With clear, grounded prose, it traces how a youth’s curiosity and fears shape a lifelong search for truth and place.

Two vivid second‑person portraits of childhood moments—from river days and fishing excursions to the daunting world of churchgoing—frame a journey of self‑understanding. The narrative blends sharp, concrete detail with reflective honesty, inviting readers to see how early life shapes later writing and thought.

- See how a young observer processes family, religion, and neighborhood life
- Experience the sensory details of schooling, travel, and daily routines
- Observe moments of danger, courage, and self‑reliance
- Follow the author’s evolving views on education, doubt, and personal growth

Ideal for readers curious about how a writer’s early environment and experiences mold their voice and ideas, and for those who enjoy biographical passages that illuminate a later, influential career.
