Summary "The Dozen from Lakerim" by Rupert Hughes is a novel written in the late 19th century that centers around a group of boys from Lakerim who form an athletic club and transition into life at Kingston Academy. The narrative captures the camaraderie, challenges, and adventures of the group, particularly highlighting Tug, the enthusiastic leader, as they navigate friendships, rivalries, and the social dynamics of school life. The opening portion introduces us to twelve boys who feel disheartened by the impending departures of some members to other academies, despite their efforts to establish a thriving athletic club in Lakerim. As tensions rise over loyalty and the fate of their club, Tug passionately addresses his friends and proposes they all join Kingston Academy together, a school with better opportunities for their athletic ambitions. Soon after, the boys embark on their journey, adjusting to the changes within their group while facing the usual trials of adolescence. The narrative weaves humor, friendship, and conflict as they contend with the traditional struggles of school life, culminating in Tug's leadership emerging as a crucial component of the story.
