Publisher's Synopsis
True To The Old Flag is a historical adventure novel written by G.A. Henty. The story is set during the American Revolution and follows the adventures of sixteen-year-old Harry Sandwith, a British soldier who is sent to fight against the American rebels. Harry is a loyalist and believes in the British cause, but he soon realizes that the American rebels are fighting for their own freedom and independence. As Harry fights alongside his fellow soldiers, he witnesses the brutality of war and the toll it takes on both sides. He also meets and befriends several American rebels, including the famous Paul Jones, and begins to question his own allegiances. Throughout the novel, Henty weaves together historical events and characters with fictional ones, creating a compelling and action-packed adventure story. True To The Old Flag is a tale of loyalty, friendship, and the struggle for freedom, and is a must-read for anyone interested in American history or adventure novels.Harold soon learned, and Cameron went at the work with grim earnestness.
