| Summary | "The Dew of Their Youth" by S. R. Crockett is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a quaint Scottish village and revolves around the young protagonist Duncan MacAlpine and his experiences at the Eden Valley Academy, where he navigates the transition from boyhood to adulthood, discovering a world filled with both thrilling adventures and tender emotions. The narrative blends elements of mystery and romance, with a particular focus on the enigmatic Haunted House of Marnhoul and the captivating Miss Irma Maitland. The opening of the novel introduces us to Duncan MacAlpine, who works as his father's assistant at Eden Valley Academy while observing the antics of his peers, particularly the girls, whom he discovers to be far more intriguing than he previously thought. We also learn of the village's fascination with the Haunted House of Marnhoul, a locale shrouded in ghostly tales that challenges the courage of the local youth. As Duncan and his friends discuss the ghostly tales surrounding Marnhoul, they are drawn into a narrative of bravery, curiosity, and the complexities of young love, setting the stage for the adventures that are to unfold in the story. The book captures the innocence of youth against a backdrop of intrigue and supernatural folklore, promising readers an engaging journey through Duncan's coming-of-age experiences.
