Summary: "The Devon Boys: A Tale of the North Shore" by George Manville Fenn is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in 1752 and follows three mischievous teenage boys—Sep Duncan, Bob Chowne, and Bigley Uggleston—who are on their summer holiday from Barnstaple Grammar School. As they explore the cliffs of Devon and engage in daring escapades, they discover a vein of galena, which leads to the establishment of a mine that brings adventure and intrigue into their lives. At the start of the novel, the narrator, Sep Duncan, recounts his return home for summer holidays with his friends, Bob and Bigley. They immediately embark on a series of adventurous activities amidst the rugged landscape, including moving rocks and planning dangerous explorations at the cliffs. Their exploits soon escalate to thrilling heights when they decide to use gunpowder to bring down a massive boulder from the cliff top. As the boys engage in their playful mischief, the narrative hints at themes of friendship, adventure, and the potential consequences of their daring actions, setting a lively tone for their summer escapades.
