Summary "Sir Tom" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative follows the life of Sir Thomas Randolph, a man who has journeyed through a tumultuous past filled with adventure and folly, and has now settled into a new role as a great landowner and husband to the heiress, Lucy Trevor. The book explores themes of responsibility, societal expectations, and the complexities of marriage. The opening of "Sir Tom" introduces Sir Thomas Randolph, who is in a precarious position despite his outward success and ownership of vast estates. Having squandered much of his fortune in his youth, Sir Tom's stability begins with his marriage to Lucy, whose inheritance enables him to restore his estate. This event sparks a transformation in both characters, moving from a carefree existence into the challenges of their new roles. The introduction of Lucy’s brother, Jock, adds a layer of familial obligation and potential conflict over the heritage linked to Lucy's father's unconventional will, hinting at deeper narrative developments to come.
