| Summary | "Ben Hadden; or, Do Right, Whatever Comes Of It" by W.H.G. Kingston is a novel written in the Victorian era, focusing on themes of courage, morality, and Christian faith amid the struggles of a young boy. The story centers around Ben Hadden, the son of a fisherman, who navigates challenges related to family hardships and his aspirations, including the search for his long-lost brother Ned. The narrative emphasizes Ben's character development as he faces adversity and demonstrates unwavering moral principles. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to Ben's family life in a small fishing hamlet on the east coast of England, where they face various misfortunes leading to their financial decline. When Ben courageously saves children from a runaway horse, he is injured but rescued by Lieutenant Charlton, who becomes a mentor figure. The story unfolds as Ben joins Charlton at sea, driven by a desire to reunite with Ned. Simultaneously, the opening establishes Ben's strong Christian upbringing, highlighting themes of faith and doing right regardless of the consequences, which are likely to resonate throughout the narrative.
