"We and the World: A Book for Boys. Part II" by Juliana Horatia Ewing is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The book follows the journey of a young boy who runs away from home to seek his fortune, embarking on a voyage filled with challenges and adventures as he navigates life at sea. The central character, a determined lad, encounters various people and situations, reflecting on the realities of poverty and the kindness of strangers amid his quest for independence. At the start of the story, the boy boards a train to Liverpool, where he meets a fellow passenger who offers him advice and camaraderie. He grapples with his motives for leaving home, realizing he must adapt to a new life that requires him to change his clothes and demeanor—symbols of his new identity. The opening chapters paint a vivid picture of the bustling Liverpool docks as he prepares to work on a ship, setting the tone for his adventures and the camaraderie he will find among the sailors. Themes of hardship, perseverance, and the importance of human connection are established early on as he navigates his path in a world filled with uncertainty and hope.
