Summary "The Happy Warrior" by A. S. M. Hutchinson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a village in Hertfordshire, where a young boy, Egbert Hunt, grapples with the sudden elevation of his employers to the peerage. The narrative explores themes of class, personal trials, and the complexities of life as Egbert's morose disposition clashes with the excitement and upheaval surrounding the Letham family's newfound status. At the start of the book, we meet Egbert, a fourteen-year-old boy working for newly titled Lord and Lady Burdon, who are adjusting to their new roles in society. The opening chapters depict Egbert's dissatisfaction with his life and his disdain for the changes brought about by the Letham family's ascension. He faces mockery from his peers, struggles with his own bitter temperament, and must contend with the encroaching reality of his employers' elevated status. Simultaneously, the narrative hints at larger social dynamics and personal stories as the Burdons navigate their new lives, setting the stage for a tale intertwined with chance, folly, youth, and the complexities of human ambition.
