"Dick Randall, the Young Athlete" by Ellery H. Clark is a novel written in the early 20th century. This coming-of-age story follows Dick Randall, a young boy who starts his journey at Fenton Academy, where he grapples with homesickness and the challenges of adolescence. The narrative centers around his experience in athletics, developing friendships, and the dynamics of school life as he navigates his identity and aspirations. At the start of the book, we meet Dick Randall on the first day of term at Fenton Academy. Feeling out of place and homesick, he discovers the school is vibrant with athletic contests and camaraderie. A chance encounter with his cheerful classmate Harry Allen helps lift Dick’s spirits as they discuss their school's athletic programs, including the significance of the Pentathlon, which becomes a focal point of competition at the academy. As the opening unfolds, readers are introduced to key themes of sport, ambition, and friendship which set the stage for the challenges and rivalries that Dick will face in the school environment.
