Set during the English Civil War and the Commonwealth (1642-1660), this novel for young readers—published in 1847—remains one of Marryat’s most popular. The aristocratic children of Colonel Beverly, left for dead by Roundheads, are adopted by a simple forester, but upon his death must navigate a treacherous world.
