Synopsis

In 1647, with England torn apart by Civil War, the four Beverley children are forced to flee their burning home and take refuge in the heart of the New Forest. Disguised as simple foresters, they must learn to hunt, farm, and survive while remaining loyal to their king. A legendary story of courage, heritage, and the bond of family, masterfully narrated by Amber Burkett.

About Frederick Marryat

Captain Frederick Marryat (1792–1848) first attempted to run away to sea at fourteen. His father, a member of Parliament, helped him secure a midshipman’s berth on a frigate commanded by the daring Thomas Cochrane. He would go on to serve in the Royal Navy for over twenty years, in the Battle of Aix Roads and the War of 1812. When he turned his pen to naval life, he became the preeminent chronicler of British naval seamen in the great age of Nelson. His many novels were admired by such authors as Conrad, Hemingway, Thackeray, Coleridge, and Washington Irving.
