520 _a"At Start and Finish" by William Lindsey is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the experiences of the protagonist, who shares reflections on his life, including athletic competitions, friendships, and cultural observations, particularly the contrast between English and American societies. The narrative quickly establishes a sense of nostalgia and introspection as the main character reflects on his past and the nuances of his identity. The opening of the novel sets the stage with a reunion in Trafalgar Square, where the protagonist meets Colonel Patterson, a friend from his past. Their conversation reveals the protagonist's journey from England to America, where he has found success as a professional runner and college trainer. As they reminisce about shared history, the story also introduces themes of belonging, identity, and the sporting culture that bridges both England and America. The anticipation builds around athletic contests, with the protagonist also preparing to witness the upcoming games between universities, where both sides will compete, highlighting the shared camaraderie and rivalry inherent in sports.
