Summary "Tom Tufton's Travels" by Evelyn Everett-Green is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces Tom Tufton, a young and reckless heir to Gablehurst, as he faces the impending death of his father, Squire Tufton. The narrative explores themes of youth, responsibility, and the quest for adventure, highlighting Tom's character as he grapples with his father's warnings and the expectations placed upon him. At the start of the novel, we witness the dying moments of Squire Tufton, surrounded by his loving family. As Rachel, Tom's devoted sister, hopes for his recovery, the Squire's concern lies with his wayward son, Tom. In a poignant conversation, the Squire expresses his disappointment over Tom's reckless behavior, wishing for him to find a sense of purpose. Ultimately, the Squire decides that Tom should leave home to gain worldly experience, setting the stage for Tom's adventures beyond Gablehurst. This opening lays the foundation for Tom’s journey of self-discovery as he ventures into London and beyond, navigating the complexities of life and the consequences of his choices.
