| Summary | "The Gold Kloof" by H. A. Bryden is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book follows the adventures of Guy Hardcastle, a young English schoolboy whose life changes dramatically due to the death of his father. He is sent to South Africa to live with his Uncle Charles, where he becomes involved in farming life and embarks on a quest for gold, guided by a native Bushman named Poeskop. The opening of the novel unfolds in Tewkesbury, England, where Guy is celebrated for his bravery in saving a drowning girl after a boat race. This act establishes his character as courageous and self-assured. Soon after, he receives a letter from his Uncle Charles in South Africa detailing the death of his father and inviting him to live with him. The narrative transitions to Guy's journey across the ocean, as he adjusts to a new life on his uncle's farm, Bamborough, full of opportunities for hunting and exploration. The young protagonist is eager to prove himself and navigate the challenges of his new environment, hinting at a rich adventure to follow. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
