Produced by Juliet Sutherland, Charles Franks and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Out of the Primitive" by Robert Ames Bennet is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins with a dramatic rescue mission off the southeast coast of Africa, where Lord James, the Earl of Avondale, is aboard a steamer searching for survivors of a shipwreck involving the "Impala". The primary focus is on Lord James and his friends as they struggle to locate the castaways, especially the women—a scenario filled with tension and uncertainty about the fate of those aboard the ill-fated vessel. The opening portion of the novel sets the stage with Lord James eager to find his friend Tom and the lovely Genevieve Leslie, who are among the survivors. As the ship navigates through the treacherous waters, the crew observes various signs that hint at the presence of castaways along the coast. The atmosphere is thick with concern and urgency as they spot a signal flag and smoke rising from the shore, igniting a glimmer of hope in Lord James. This tension is quickly compounded as he prepares to meet the survivors and is soon confronted with the reality of their ordeal, as well as the complicated feelings that emerge between the characters, foreshadowing deeper relational dynamics as the story unfolds.
