Kingston is a fictional novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around a young boy named Digby Heathcote, the son and heir of a country gentleman, as he navigates the challenges of childhood, family life, and mischief at Bloxholme Hall. The book explores themes of innocence, familial relationships, and the consequences of youthful pranks. The opening of the novel introduces us to Digby, a rambunctious nine-year-old who is already showing signs of being spoiled by his doting family. Caught in the act of raiding the jam pots by the housekeeper, Mrs. Carter, Digby’s antics demonstrate his playful yet mischievous nature. The narrative describes Bloxholme Hall and its surroundings in great detail, setting the stage for Digby's adventures alongside his siblings, particularly his clever sister Kate. As the chapter progresses, we see Digby’s spirited character in his interactions with household staff and family, highlighting both the joys and challenges of growing up in a privileged setting.
