"All But Lost: A Novel. Vol. 3 of 3" by G. A. Henty is a historical fiction novel written in the late 19th century. The story seems to follow intertwined lives, focusing on Fred Bingham, a troubled contractor with a volatile disposition, and Frank Maynard, who finds himself struggling after financial ruin. As tensions rise due to personal and familial conflicts, themes of betrayal, class differences, and desperation emerge. At the start of the novel, we meet Fred Bingham, an ambitious contractor who is successful in public but tyrannical in private, particularly towards his wife. Meanwhile, his cousin Frank Maynard faces a significant life change as he loses everything after a bank failure. Struggling to support his wife and child, Frank contemplates a new life while grappling with the consequences of claims on an inheritance linked to family secrets. The narrative sets the stage for a clash of fates as family tensions and financial desperation threaten to derail both men’s lives. The opening chapters establish a powerful sense of foreboding, hinting at the challenges that lie ahead for these characters. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
