Cast Adrift is a novel written by T.S. Arthur, first published in 1870. The story follows the life of a young man named George, who is orphaned at a young age and left to fend for himself. George is determined to make something of himself and sets out to find work in the city. However, after a series of misfortunes, he finds himself without a job, homeless, and alone.As George struggles to survive on the streets, he meets a kind-hearted woman named Mrs. Saunders, who takes him in and helps him get back on his feet. With Mrs. Saunders' guidance, George is able to find work and start a new life for himself.But just as things seem to be looking up for George, he is faced with a difficult decision that could change the course of his life forever. Will he choose the path of honesty and integrity, or will he be tempted by the allure of wealth and power?Cast Adrift is a timeless tale of perseverance, morality, and the power of human kindness. Through the character of George, T.S. Arthur explores the themes of poverty, social inequality, and the struggle for self-improvement. The novel is a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion and empathy in a world that can often be harsh and unforgiving.The river of her life, which had cut for itself a deeper channel, lay now so far down that it was out of the sight of common observation. Even her mother failed to apprehend its drift and strength. Her father knew her better. To her mother she was reserved and distant; to her father, warm and confiding. With the former she would sit for hours without speaking unless addressed; with the latter she was pleased and social, and grew to be interested in what interested him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
