Summary: "The Croxley Master: A Great Tale Of The Prize Ring" by Arthur Conan Doyle is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of the boxing world, the book tells the story of Robert Montgomery, a medical assistant struggling to finance his final year of medical school. With a fighting background, he gets an unexpected opportunity to earn the money he needs by stepping in to fight the famed Silas Craggs, known as the Master of Croxley, after the original contender is injured. The narrative follows Montgomery as he trains and prepares for the fight against the formidable Craggs, exploring themes of courage, class struggle, and the spirit of sport. Montgomery’s internal struggles, combined with the external pressures of societal expectations and the physical demands of boxing, build the tension leading up to the match. His fight against the Master is not only a battle of strength and skill but also a fight for his future and dreams of becoming a doctor. Ultimately, the outcome of the match serves as a turning point for Montgomery, revealing deeper insights into human character, ambition, and resilience in the face of adversity.
