Did you ever read the most proximate inspiration for LOTF, The Coral Island? Aside of being Victorian in its bigotries (ahahhahaahah), it's actually kind of entertaining as a kids' adventure story , or at least I found it so as a child when the British Male Exceptionalism went right over my head. A decade later I found out LOTF was based on it I was very entertained.
