| Summary | "Snap: A Legend of the Lone Mountain" by Clive Phillipps-Wolley is a novel written in the late 19th century. Set in an English school environment, the story revolves around Snap Hales, a young cricket enthusiast who often finds himself in trouble due to his mischievous antics. The novel explores themes of friendship, competition, and the transition from youth to adulthood as Snap navigates the challenges posed both on and off the cricket field. At the start of the story, we are introduced to the characters at Fernhall School, where the cricket team is short a player for an important match against Loamshire. The captain, Frank Winthrop, is determined to secure Snap's participation, despite his recent misdeeds that have caught the ire of their headmaster. As great excitement builds for the match, Snap arrives just in time to bowl, showcasing his talent and eventually leading his team to victory. However, his reckless behavior and subsequent squabbles with fellow students foreshadow further adventures and mischief as he navigates the complexities of school life, friendships, and expectations.
