Summary "The Story of Sugar" by Sara Ware Bassett is a historical account written during the early 20th century. This work explores the various facets of the sugar industry, particularly focusing on the experiences of two boys, Bob Carlton and Van Blake, as they navigate through their friendship amid familial tensions tied to the sugar business. The book juxtaposes their personal journeys with the intricate processes involved in sugar production both on a maple farm and in a sugar refinery, providing insights into the broader implications of sugar as a commodity. The opening of "The Story of Sugar" introduces us to Bob and his roommate Van at Colversham School, where they are preparing for exams as they discuss their upcoming spring break plans to visit Bob's family farm in New Hampshire. The narrative captures their contrasting personalities; Bob is diligent and responsible, while Van is carefree and sociable, often depending on Bob's academic support. Their camaraderie leads them to adventure in the New Hampshire countryside, notably foreshadowing a busy and exciting future involving maple sugaring. As they embark on this journey, the initial character dynamics and underlying tensions between their families are established, setting the stage for the unfolding exploration of friendship, family legacy, and the world of sugar production.
