| Summary | "Courage, True Hearts: Sailing in Search of Fortune" by Gordon Stables is a fiction novel written in the late 19th century. This coming-of-age adventure follows the lives of two brothers, Duncan and Conal M’Vayne, as they navigate their youthful ambitions and dreams against the backdrop of the Scottish Highlands and their journey to London. The story encapsulates themes of adventure, brotherhood, and the courage to explore the unknown, set amid the rich beauty of Scotland and the complexities of life in a bustling city." "The opening of the book introduces us to Duncan and Conal as they enjoy a morning of shooting in their Scottish woodland home, accompanied by their spirited young sister, Flora, and their loyal Newfoundland dog, Viking. This idyllic life takes a turn with a letter from their distant relative, Colonel Trelawney, proposing an exchange that will send the boys to London while his son spends the winter in the Highlands. As the boys dream about their impending adventure in the great city, the narrative sets up a contrast between their vibrant rural upbringing and the allure of London life, suggesting a transformative journey ahead filled with challenges and growth."
