| Summary | "Jim Harrison, Boxeur" by Arthur Conan Doyle is a historical novel written during the early 20th century. The narrative takes place in England during the Regency era, exploring themes of identity, class, and the sport of boxing. The story revolves around Jim Harrison, a former champion and forger, and Rodney Stone, his friend and the narrator, as they navigate the complexities of their lives against the backdrop of boxing and societal expectations. At the start of the novel, the protagonist, Rodney Stone, reflects on the differences between his generation and that of his children as they reminisce about significant events in their lives. He introduces Jim Harrison, the titular character, who is raised by his uncle, a boxing champion turned blacksmith. Rodney recounts how their friendship formed during their childhood and how they operated within their small village of Friar's Oak. The beginning also sets the tone for the narrative, hinting at the impending adventures that center around Jim’s boxing prowess and the transformative relationships that will unfold as they encounter characters from various social strata, including a ghost story involving Lord Avon, touching upon themes of honor and the conflicts of their age.
