"Sea-gift: A Novel" by Edwin W. Fuller is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around John Smith, the protagonist, who embarks on a journey exploring his identity, family legacy, and childhood experiences. Set against a backdrop of societal expectations and familial pride, the story promises to delve into themes of love, innocence, and the complexities of growing up. At the start of the novel, the narrator, John, introduces himself in a humorous and self-reflective manner, contemplating the commonality of his name and his family's noble lineage. He shares anecdotes about his upbringing, detailing the contrasting personalities of his wealthy parents, and the profound influence of his mother’s charity and goodness. As he reminisces about the early days of his life, including amusing impressions of his experiences as an infant and a mischievous boy, the opening sets the stage for the unfolding of his adventures and developing character in a societal setting filled with humor, warmth, and a touch of nostalgia.
