| Summary | "Lion Ben of Elm Island" by Elijah Kellogg is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the character Ben Rhines, who is portrayed as a strong and noble individual facing the challenges of life on a remote island. The novel explores themes such as hard work, love, and the quintessential American spirit of perseverance and community. The opening of the book introduces readers to the beauty and ruggedness of Elm Island, where Captain Ben Rhines lives. It details the island's natural features, emphasizing its lush landscapes and the various wildlife inhabiting it. The narrative shifts to focus on the Rhines family, specifically on Ben as he prepares to take on responsibilities both at sea and at home. We learn of his love for Sally Hadlock and his desire to create a life for them together, leading him to consider purchasing Elm Island to build a home despite the challenges that come with it. The opening sets the stage for a rich tale of adventure, community, and the formation of a family amid the trials of frontier life. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
