| Summary | "All But Lost: A Novel" by G. A. Henty is a fiction work written in the late 19th century. This narrative likely explores themes of college life, bravery, and the social dynamics at play in a university setting, as evidenced by the focus on camaraderie among students and notable events such as college rowing races and personal challenges. The novel introduces several characters, including Frank Maynard, who seems to take center stage as he navigates friendships and personal dilemmas in a competitive collegiate environment.
