520 _a"White Lightning" by Edwin Herbert Lewis is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Marvin Mahan, a bright and curious twelve-year-old boy who is fascinated with science and chemistry, living in a bustling Chicago. The narrative follows his journey of discovery and adventure as he delves into the world of chemical elements and explores the intricacies of both science and life as he grows up. The opening of the novel introduces Marvin peering into a blacksmith shop, pondering the relationship between fire and water. Soon after, he rushes to engage with his father, Chase Mahan, a mining engineer, whose presence looms large in Marvin's world. The boy's burning curiosity sets the stage for numerous scientific experiments, particularly his desire to understand and create hydrogen. As Chase reflects on Marvin's youthful energy and potential, the family dynamic entrains various themes of intellect, familial connections, and the broader atmosphere of early 20th-century America, all while hinting at the burgeoning complexities of life that Marvin will navigate in the years to come.
