| Summary | "Lister's Great Adventure" by Harold Bindloss is a novel written during the early 20th century. It follows George Lister, a railway engineer, as he navigates both professional challenges and personal relationships in a rapidly changing world. The story opens with the introduction of various characters, such as the meddling Tom Cartwright and the rebellious young woman Barbara, who find themselves intertwined with Lister's journey. At the start of the novel, the reader is introduced to the idyllic setting of a Canadian summer hotel, where Cartwright expresses concerns about his stepdaughter Barbara's romantic inclinations towards a clerk named Shillito. As Cartwright plots to intervene, Barbara is portrayed as strong-willed and impulsive, revealing tensions between her desires and societal expectations. Meanwhile, Lister's story unfolds as he reflects on his aspirations to climb the professional ladder within the railway industry while hinting at romantic implications in his interactions with a mysterious girl on board a train. The opening sets up a narrative rich in adventure and character dynamics as Lister contemplates his role in a world marked by both opportunity and personal conflicts.
