Summary "Youth Challenges" by Clarence Budington Kelland is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book follows Bonbright Foote VII, a young man from a powerful family, as he begins his journey in the family business amidst the expectations and traditions of his lineage. Central to the story is Bonbright's struggle to navigate the pressures of his inherited responsibilities, including his family's legacy and societal expectations, while also grappling with the turbulent dynamics between capital and labor during a time of rising union activity. The opening of "Youth Challenges" introduces Bonbright Foote VII as he prepares to take his place in the family firm. Through a ceremonial transfer of roles from his father, Bonbright feels the weight of generational expectations thrust upon him and is acutely aware of his responsibilities, particularly in the context of marriage and business succession. As he interacts with the company and its employees, he encounters the realities of labor unrest, leading to a strike that challenges his views and the legacy he must contend with. The narrative quickly establishes the conflicting ideologies surrounding class and power dynamics, igniting Bonbright's internal conflict as he begins to question his family's traditions and his role in the unfolding events.
