The Child of the English Savage is a novel written by Henry Edward Manning and Benjamin Waugh, first published in 1886. The story follows a young boy named Jack, who is born to a savage Englishman and a Christian woman. Jack's mother dies during childbirth, and he is left to be raised by his father, who is deeply entrenched in his savage ways. Jack grows up in the wilderness, learning to hunt and survive in the wild. However, he also becomes aware of his mother's faith and begins to question his father's way of life. As Jack grows older, he becomes torn between his loyalty to his father and his desire to live a more civilized life.
